selftests/bpf: check return value of fopen in test_verifier.c
Commit 0a6748740368 ("selftests/bpf: Only run tests if !bpf_disabled") forgot to check return value of fopen. This caused some confusion, when running test_verifier (from tools/testing/selftests/bpf/) on an older kernel (< v4.4) as it will simply seqfault. This fix avoids the segfault and prints an error, but allow program to continue. Given the sysctl was introduced in 1be7f75d1668 ("bpf: enable non-root eBPF programs"), we know that the running kernel cannot support unpriv, thus continue with unpriv_disabled = true. Fixes: 0a6748740368 ("selftests/bpf: Only run tests if !bpf_disabled") Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>
