The current check statement in BPF syscall will do a capability check for CAP_SYS_ADMIN before checking sysctl_unprivileged_bpf_disabled. This code path will trigger unnecessary security hooks on capability checking and cause false alarms on unprivileged process trying to get CAP_SYS_ADMIN access. This can be resolved by simply switch the order of the statement and CAP_SYS_ADMIN is not required anyway if unprivileged bpf syscall is allowed.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
