[RFC][PATCH 2/4] bpf: Allow BPF_JIT with CONFIG_MODULES=n

From: Calvin Owens
Date: Wed Mar 06 2024 - 15:08:45 EST


No BPF code has to change, except in struct_ops (for module refs).

This conflicts with bpf-next because of this (relevant) series:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240119225005.668602-1-thinker.li@xxxxxxxxx/

If something like this is merged down the road, it can go through
bpf-next at leisure once the module_alloc change is in: it's a one-way
dependency.

BPF programs are normally handled by a BPF interpreter. This option
allows the kernel to generate native code when a program is loaded
