+Subject: net, sunrpc: Remap EPERM in case of connection failure in xs_tcp_setup_socket
+
+From: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>
+
+commit 626dfed5fa3bfb41e0dffd796032b555b69f9cde upstream.
+
+When using a BPF program on kernel_connect(), the call can return -EPERM. This
+causes xs_tcp_setup_socket() to loop forever, filling up the syslog and causing
+the kernel to potentially freeze up.
+
+Neil suggested:
+
+ This will propagate -EPERM up into other layers which might not be ready
+ to handle it. It might be safer to map EPERM to an error we would be more
+ likely to expect from the network system - such as ECONNREFUSED or ENETDOWN.
+
+ECONNREFUSED as error seems reasonable. For programs setting a different error
+can be out of reach (see handling in 4fbac77d2d09) in particular on kernels
+which do not have f10d05966196 ("bpf: Make BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY return -err
+instead of allow boolean"), thus given that it is better to simply remap for
+consistent behavior. UDP does handle EPERM in xs_udp_send_request().
+
+Fixes: d74bad4e74ee ("bpf: Hooks for sys_connect")
+Fixes: 4fbac77d2d09 ("bpf: Hooks for sys_bind")
