Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v2 1/3] bpf: Add bpf_arch_supports_fsession()

From: Leon Hwang <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2026 23:01:10 +0800

fsession programs can currently be loaded on architectures that do not
implement fsession support, which leads to runtime errors instead of a
clean verifier rejection.

For example, running fsession selftests on arm64 before fsession support
is added results in:

test_fsession_basic:PASS:fsession_test__open_and_load 0 nsec
test_fsession_basic:PASS:fsession_attach 0 nsec
check_result:FAIL:test_run_opts err unexpected error: -14 (errno 14)

Introduce bpf_arch_supports_fsession() to explicitly gate fsession usage
based on architecture support. Architectures without fsession support
will now fail program load with -EOPNOTSUPP, allowing selftests to skip
cleanly instead of errors at runtime.

x86 declares fsession support, while the default implementation returns
false.

Fixes: 2d419c44658f ("bpf: add fsession support")
