Scope and ptrace denials follow a different code path (a domain
hierarchy check) than access-right denials, so they need dedicated
tracepoints with type-specific TP_PROTO arguments. Complete the denial
coverage with:
- landlock_deny_ptrace: ptrace access denied by a domain hierarchy
mismatch.
- landlock_deny_scope_signal: signal delivery denied by
LANDLOCK_SCOPE_SIGNAL.
- landlock_deny_scope_abstract_unix_socket: abstract unix socket access
denied by LANDLOCK_SCOPE_ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET.
TP_PROTO passes the raw kernel object (struct task_struct or struct
sock) for eBPF BTF access; the comm and sun_path string fields use
__print_untrusted_str() because they hold untrusted input. Unlike the
deny_access events, these omit the blockers field: each maps to exactly
one denial type named by the event, so the bitmask would always be zero.
Like the deny_access events they carry same_exec and logged.
Audit logs the task-targeted denials with generic field names (opid,
ocomm), but a strongly typed trace event can use role-prefixed names
(tracee_pid/tracee_comm, target_pid/target_comm) that match the mainline
task-name convention (sched_process_fork's parent_comm/child_comm) and
say whose name each field holds; a bare comm= would collide across
events. The abstract-unix-socket event reports peer_pid instead, a
tracepoint-only field with no audit counterpart.
A scope or ptrace verdict compares the subject domain against the other
party's domain, so each event also reports that other party's Landlock
domain (tracee_domain=, target_domain=, or peer_domain=); the subject
domain= alone does not let a consumer redo domain_is_scoped() or
domain_ptrace(). It is reported as a scalar ID rather than a domain
pointer: a domain object is immutable, but the other task can replace
its credential and free the domain that credential referenced, so a
stored foreign pointer could dangle before the event is consumed. The
scalar ID also honors the tracepoint no-nullable-pointer rule, since the
other party is frequently unsandboxed. Passing the foreign domain
hierarchy object so an eBPF consumer could walk the other party's
ancestry live would lengthen the RCU section on the shared denial path
and needs a deferred refcount put, so it is left as a future
enhancement. The relational domain-ID field (tracee_domain,
target_domain, or peer_domain) is trace-only and is not added to audit
records, so audit's denial format is unchanged by this series.

Add per-type tracepoints emitted from landlock_log_denial() when an
access is denied: landlock_deny_access_fs for filesystem denials and
landlock_deny_access_net for network denials. They use the "deny_"
prefix (rather than "check_") to mark that they fire only on a denial,
and they complement the check_rule events by making the
denial-by-absence case explicit (when no rule matches, no check_rule
event fires).
Unlike the audit records, these events fire regardless of the audit
configuration and the domain's log flags: the user's "disable logging"
intent applies to audit records, not to kernel tracing. The logged
field records whether the domain's log policy would submit the denial to
audit; it is the decision computed once by landlock_log_denial() and
passed to both the audit and the tracing emitter, so a stateless ftrace
filter can select the audit-visible denials with logged==1.
TP_PROTO passes the denying hierarchy node, not the task's current
domain, so domain_id reports the specific node that blocked the access,
matching audit record semantics. (check_rule instead passes the current
domain, which it needs to size its per-layer array.) same_exec is also
passed explicitly because it is computed from the credential bitmask and
is not derivable from the hierarchy pointer alone. The denial field is
named blockers to match the audit record field.
The filesystem path comes from the request's audit data. Its type
selects which union member holds the object, exactly as
dump_common_audit_data() selects it (a path, a file's path, an ioctl
op's path, or a bare dentry); reading the wrong member would dereference
garbage, so every reachable type has an explicit case and an unexpected
one is flagged with WARN_ONCE() instead of misread. Path-backed types
resolve via d_absolute_path() (as landlock_add_rule_fs does) and the
bare-dentry case via dentry_path_raw().
The inode number is read defensively. A filesystem denial can carry a
negative dentry (no backing inode), for example a denied creation, so
the event mirrors the guard in dump_common_audit_data() and reports
inode 0 rather than dereferencing a NULL inode. The sibling fs
tracepoints do not need the guard: a dentry that matches a rule during
an access check, or one opened to add a rule, always has a backing
inode. Landlock tracepoints are reachable by unprivileged sandboxees,
so a denial on a negative dentry with the event enabled must not fault
the kernel.

Merge landlock_find_rule() into landlock_unmask_layers() so rule
pointers stay inside the domain implementation while unmask checking
gets the matched rule it needs for the check_rule tracepoint.
landlock_unmask_layers() now takes a landlock_id and the domain instead
of a rule pointer. A rename or link evaluates the same dentry against
both renamed parents, so this path now looks the rule up once per
parent; collapsing that back to a single lookup is left to a follow-up.
Emit, via the per-type wrappers unmask_layers_fs() and
unmask_layers_net(), the rights each matching rule grants at every
domain layer. The events carry this as a dynamic per-layer array (up to
LANDLOCK_MAX_NUM_LAYERS entries) reserved from the trace ring buffer,
not the caller's stack, and rendered symbolically per layer. A
WARN_ON_ONCE() in __trace_landlock_fill_layers() flags a rule whose
layer levels fall outside the domain range or are unsorted, a
cannot-happen case; the zero-filled slots keep the rendered output and
the array bounds safe regardless.
Setting allowed_parent2 to true for non-dom-check requests when
get_inode_id() returns false preserves the pre-refactoring behavior: a
negative dentry (no backing inode) has no matching rule, so the access
is allowed at this path component. Before the refactoring,
landlock_unmask_layers() with a NULL rule produced this result as a side
effect; now the caller must set it explicitly.
Name the trace-only check_rule fields so each printk label equals its
ring-buffer field name and works directly as an ftrace filter: the
request field is labelled access_request= and the per-layer array is
named grants. Values audit also logs keep audit's label (domain=,
ruleset=) so a single filter works across trace and audit.

The landlock_create_domain event records that a domain was created,
once, before thread-sync. It cannot tell which threads end up enforcing
it: a successful landlock_restrict_self(2) with
LANDLOCK_RESTRICT_SELF_TSYNC applies the domain to the caller and every
eligible sibling. Creation (the operation) and enforcement (the
per-thread outcome) are distinct.
Add landlock_enforce_domain(domain, complete, process_wide), emitted
once per thread the domain is applied to, strictly after that thread's
commit_creds(), so it fires only for a thread that is enforcing the
domain, never speculatively; an aborted operation emits none. The
lifecycle now reads create -> enforce* -> free.
The two booleans name properties, not the implementation:
- complete: marks the single event that concludes the operation. It
names the outcome, the set is now enforced, not which thread
finishes, which the contract leaves unspecified.
- process_wide: means every eligible thread of the process is
covered. It is set race-free by either establishing path,
thread-sync or a single-threaded process, so
complete && process_wide is the whole-process-enforced guarantee.
The requesting thread and source ruleset are not repeated here: they are
on create_domain (joined via domain->hierarchy->id) and on the immutable
domain->hierarchy->details. Source ruleset means the ruleset_id and
ruleset_version recorded on create_domain, not the ruleset object, which
the caller may close before enforcement.

Add a landlock_create_domain tracepoint emitted from
landlock_restrict_self() after the new domain is created, so a consumer
can correlate the source ruleset with the resulting domain. The
flags-only path (ruleset_fd == -1) creates no domain and emits no event.
Move the ruleset lock acquisition from landlock_merge_ruleset() to the
caller so the lock is held across both the merge and the tracepoint
emission, giving an eBPF program a consistent ruleset snapshot. Release
it before the thread-sync: holding ruleset->lock across
landlock_restrict_sibling_threads() would deadlock a sibling blocked on
the same lock. The event therefore fires before the (rare) thread-sync
failure path; when that path aborts the just-created domain, the
matching free_domain event fires so the create/free pair stays balanced.
Add a landlock_free_domain tracepoint that fires when a domain's
hierarchy node is freed. The hierarchy node is the lifecycle boundary
because it represents the domain's identity and outlives the domain's
access masks, which may still be active in descendant domains.
A domain freed without ever being committed to a credential was never
visible to user space, so free_domain is suppressed for it. This is
tracked by a new landlock_log_status value, LANDLOCK_LOG_UNCOMMITTED,
which is also the zero value so a hierarchy whose initialization failed
defaults to not observable. A hierarchy is born UNCOMMITTED and is
promoted to LANDLOCK_LOG_PENDING (or LANDLOCK_LOG_DISABLED when logging
is off) right after its create_domain event fires; a thread-sync failure
does not reset it, so an aborted domain that already emitted
create_domain still emits the matching free_domain. Promoting right
after the event, rather than at commit_creds() time, avoids a race: on a
successful thread-sync the sibling threads commit the new domain in
lockstep before landlock_restrict_self() returns, so the shared domain
may already have moved to LANDLOCK_LOG_RECORDED through a plain store,
and a late promotion would race that store and could unbalance the
domain allocation and deallocation audit records.

Add tracepoints for Landlock rule addition, landlock_add_rule_fs for
filesystem rules and landlock_add_rule_net for network rules, so trace
consumers can correlate filesystem objects and network ports with their
rulesets. Both are emitted under the ruleset lock (asserted in
TP_fast_assign) so an eBPF program reads the ruleset, including the rule
just inserted, in a consistent snapshot.
Add a version field to struct landlock_ruleset, gated on
CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS like the id field and incremented under the ruleset
lock on each successful landlock_add_rule(2), including when it only
extends an existing rule's access rights. It fills the existing 4-byte
hole after usage, so the struct does not grow. Pairing the ruleset ID
with the version lets a later restrict_self event record the exact
ruleset revision merged into a domain.
Resolve the filesystem rule's absolute path with d_absolute_path()
rather than the d_path() audit uses: d_absolute_path() produces
namespace-independent paths that do not depend on the tracer's chroot
state, making trace output deterministic regardless of mount namespace
configuration. Distinguish the error cases as "<too_long>"
(-ENAMETOOLONG) and "<unreachable>" (anonymous files or detached
mounts).
Also add __trace_print_untrusted_str(), a static inline helper in the
header guarded by CREATE_TRACE_POINTS: it escapes separators, quotes,
backslashes, and non-printable bytes via string_escape_mem() so an
untrusted string (the path here, process names in later denial events)
cannot inject field separators or control characters into the ftrace
text output.

Add the first Landlock tracepoints, for ruleset lifecycle:
landlock_create_ruleset fires from the landlock_create_ruleset() syscall
handler, and landlock_free_ruleset fires in free_ruleset() before the
ruleset is freed.
These tracepoints, and the ones added by the following commits, share a
common design. Rather than one polymorphic event distinguished by a
status field (as audit uses a shared record type with a "status="
field), each lifecycle transition and denial type gets its own event
with a type-safe TP_PROTO, giving precise ftrace filtering by event name
and type-safe eBPF access. TP_PROTO passes the object pointer and the
fields are read from it in TP_fast_assign, so an eBPF program reads the
full object state (rules, access masks, hierarchy) via BTF from a single
pointer rather than from the flattened TP_STRUCT__entry fields. The
whole cost is paid only when a tracer is attached; the static branch is
not taken otherwise. Trace fields carry the bare access-right and scope
names (read_file), reusing the audit name tables; audit prepends the
category (fs.read_file), which the trace event name already conveys.
The trace header's DOC comment documents the consistency and locking
guarantees these events share.
create_ruleset needs no lock because the ruleset is not yet shared (its
file descriptor is not yet installed). The deallocation events use the
"free_" prefix, not "drop_", because they fire when the object is
actually freed.
Add trace.c, built for CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS, which defines
CREATE_TRACE_POINTS, and extend CONFIG_SECURITY_LANDLOCK_LOG to also be
selected by CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS so the common log framework is available
to a tracepoints-only build.
Add an id field to struct landlock_ruleset, gated on CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS
and assigned from landlock_get_id_range() at creation. Only the
tracepoints consume it (audit identifies domains, not rulesets), so it
does not exist in an audit-only build. The Landlock ID is a stable u64
that names the ruleset across the trace stream and uses the same scheme
as audit, so a ruleset can be correlated between trace and audit
records.

Audit formats denial records with per-right name strings. A following
commit adds trace events that print the same access and scope masks with
__print_flags() and need the same names, but a trace event header cannot
include Landlock-internal headers, so the names cannot be shared from
the logging unit.
Define the filesystem, network, and scope names once, as the
_LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_NAMES, _LANDLOCK_ACCESS_NET_NAMES, and
_LANDLOCK_SCOPE_NAMES lists in the public Landlock header. Each entry
is a _LANDLOCK_NAME_ENTRY() the consumer expands: audit maps it to a
"[bit] = name" array slot for an O(1) lookup, the trace events map it to
a __print_flags() { mask, name } pair. The bit value comes only from
the LANDLOCK_* UAPI constant each entry references, so every bit-to-name
mapping has a single source and does not depend on entry order.
The shared names are unprefixed; blocker_prefix() prepends the
fs./net./scope. category for audit records, so the scope names move from
inline literals to the shared table too. Audit records are unchanged.
No functional change.

Until now, whether a denial is logged was decided inside
landlock_audit_denial(): a per-execution flag check (log_same_exec or
log_new_exec, selected by the credential's domain_exec bitmask),
preceded by a LANDLOCK_LOG_DISABLED early return in
landlock_log_denial() for domains an ancestor fully quieted.
Factor that decision into a single is_denial_logged() helper called once
by landlock_log_denial(), and pass its result to landlock_audit_denial()
as a "logged" boolean. A following commit passes the same boolean to
the deny tracepoints, so audit and tracing share one decision that stays
correct as new log state is added, and a tracepoints-only build
(CONFIG_AUDIT=n) computes it identically. Computing the logged verdict
once in the shared helper makes audit and tracing apply identical
filtering, so they cannot report different logged= values for the same
denial as log controls grow.
Move the LANDLOCK_LOG_DISABLED gate out of landlock_log_denial() into
the decision so num_denials counts every denial, including those a
domain quiets. This was previously masked: the only reader of
num_denials is the audit "domain deallocated" record, emitted only for
domains that reached LANDLOCK_LOG_RECORDED; a fully quieted domain never
records, so its undercount was never observable. A following commit
adds a free_domain tracepoint that reports num_denials, which needs the
full count.
This is not a functional change for audit: the logged decision and the
audit_enabled gate are preserved, so the emitted records are identical.

Tracepoint emission requires the denial framework (layer identification,
request validation) without depending on CONFIG_AUDIT. Separate the
denial logging infrastructure from the audit-specific code by
introducing a common log framework.
Create CONFIG_SECURITY_LANDLOCK_LOG, enabled by default when
CONFIG_AUDIT is set; a following commit extends it to CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS
when the first tracepoint consumer is added. Move the common framework
(the request types, the layer identification and request validation, and
the landlock_log_denial() and landlock_log_free_domain() entry points)
into log.c and log.h, and keep the audit-specific record formatting in
audit.c. log.o is built for CONFIG_SECURITY_LANDLOCK_LOG and audit.o for
CONFIG_AUDIT, so the common framework is available to a tracepoints-only
build. The entry points dispatch to no-op static inline audit stubs
without CONFIG_AUDIT, so the call sites stay unconditional. Rename the
former landlock_log_drop_domain() to landlock_log_free_domain() to match
the landlock_free_domain tracepoint added in a following commit.
landlock_log_denial() counts denials even without audit, so its
declaration and no-op stub are guarded by CONFIG_SECURITY_LANDLOCK_LOG,
not CONFIG_AUDIT; a CONFIG_AUDIT guard would expose the stub and clash
with log.c's definition in a tracepoints-only build.
Widen the ID allocation (id.o and the landlock_init_id() /
landlock_get_id_range() declarations) and the log-state representation
(the domain_exec and log_subdomains_off credential fields, the
landlock_hierarchy log fields, and the code that maintains them) from
CONFIG_AUDIT to CONFIG_SECURITY_LANDLOCK_LOG, so each field and its
writer share one guard and are available to tracing without audit
support.
Widen the denial-path state that feeds the per-denial logging decision
the same way, so the "logged" verdict is computed identically whether or
not CONFIG_AUDIT is set. Widening fown_layer is what keeps the
file-owner-signal path valid without audit: otherwise
hook_file_send_sigiotask() would leave layer_plus_one at zero, tripping
the is_valid_request() canary and dropping the LANDLOCK_SCOPE_SIGNAL
denial from tracing.
The ruleset-level quiet_masks stays on no CONFIG guard: it is builder
state validated and stored from user input, kept available so
LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_QUIET flags are accepted and ignored, not rejected,
when CONFIG_SECURITY_LANDLOCK_LOG is disabled.

Switch all domain users to the new struct landlock_domain type
introduced by a previous commit, eliminating the conflation between
mutable rulesets and immutable domains. landlock_merge_ruleset() now
returns and allocates a struct landlock_domain, and the merge and
inherit helpers move next to it; the former static insert_rule() is
exported as landlock_store_rule() for its new caller across the
translation-unit boundary.
The merge destination is now a private struct landlock_domain still
under construction (owned by the calling thread, not yet shared), so the
merge and inherit helpers lock only the source ruleset: the previous
lock of both destination and source collapses to a single
mutex_lock(&src->lock).
Rename the per-layer access-mask field from access_masks to
handled_masks, naming it by the role it plays (the rights each layer
handles) rather than by its type, paralleling the struct access_masks
quiet_masks field. Drop the now domain-only fields (hierarchy,
work_free, num_layers) from struct landlock_ruleset.
The new struct landlock_domain field in cred.h pulls in domain.h, which
includes audit.h, which previously included cred.h, forming an include
cycle. Break it by having audit.h forward-declare the struct
landlock_cred_security and struct landlock_hierarchy it uses instead of
including cred.h.

Grouping domain-specific code in one compilation unit reduces coupling
between domain and ruleset implementations.
Move the access-check functions that only operate on a domain (rule
lookup, layer unmasking, layer-mask init, access-mask union) from
ruleset.[ch] to domain.[ch]. They evaluate whether a domain grants a
requested access during the pathwalk and network checks and do not
modify the domain.
The merge and inherit chain stays in ruleset.c for now because it calls
the static create_ruleset() allocator; a following commit moves it once
the domain type switch eliminates that dependency.
No behavioral change. The functions move with unchanged signatures and
bodies.

Rulesets and domains serve fundamentally different purposes: a ruleset
is mutable and user-facing, created by landlock_create_ruleset(), while
a domain is immutable after construction and enforced on tasks via
landlock_restrict_self(). Today both are represented by struct
landlock_ruleset, which conflates mutable and immutable state in a
single type: the lock field is unused by domains, the hierarchy field is
unused by rulesets, and lifecycle functions must handle both cases.
Prepare for a clean type split by introducing two new structures:
- struct landlock_rules: the red-black tree roots and rule count, shared
by both rulesets and domains. Decoupling rule storage from the domain
API lets the backing data structure change independently (e.g. to a
hash table, cf. [1]).
- struct landlock_domain: the immutable domain enforced on tasks, with
no lock field because its rules and access masks are fixed once
construction completes. The name reflects the role, not the internal
data structure.
Add the domain lifecycle helpers (landlock_get_domain(),
landlock_put_domain(), landlock_put_domain_deferred()) and move domain.o
from landlock-$(CONFIG_AUDIT) to landlock-y, because these are needed
unconditionally, not just for audit logging.
No behavioral change. The new types and lifecycle functions are not yet
used by any caller.

Add a landlock_restrict_self(2) flag to set the no_new_privs attribute
of the calling thread only after enforcement of the ruleset:
no_new_privs is set if and only if the call succeeds. This removes the
need for a prior prctl(2) PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS call and guarantees that
a failed enforcement leaves the attribute unchanged.
Because no_new_privs is set by the call itself, the no_new_privs /
CAP_SYS_ADMIN requirement of landlock_restrict_self(2) is fulfilled by
construction, and the related EPERM check is skipped.
Unlike LANDLOCK_RESTRICT_SELF_LOG_SUBDOMAINS_OFF, this flag always
requires a valid ruleset: with a ruleset_fd of -1, such a call would be
nothing more than a Landlock-flavored prctl(2) PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS, and
there is no valid use case for setting no_new_privs (possibly with
LANDLOCK_RESTRICT_SELF_TSYNC) without also enforcing Landlock
restrictions. Rejecting these calls also keeps the option of giving
them a meaning later.
The attribute is only set past the last point of failure, just before
committing the new credentials. When combined with
LANDLOCK_RESTRICT_SELF_TSYNC, no_new_privs is set on the sibling threads
as well, in their commit phase, with the same ordering.
Bump the Landlock ABI version to 11, and include the minimal related
test changes to keep the tests bisectable.

landlock_restrict_self(2) currently checks the no_new_privs /
CAP_SYS_ADMIN requirement before validating the flags argument. An
unprivileged caller without no_new_privs thus gets EPERM even when the
passed flags are invalid, hiding the EINVAL error.
Move the no_new_privs / CAP_SYS_ADMIN check just after the flags check
so that malformed calls consistently error out with EINVAL whatever the
caller's privileges, the same way seccomp(2) validates its flags before
checking no_new_privs.
Update the restrict_self_checks_ordering test accordingly.

Whiteout objects are used in the upper layer of an OverlayFS to
indicate that the file with this name does not exist in the unified
view, even if it is present in one of the lower layer file systems.
For the userspace implementations of OverlayFS (fuse-overlayfs),
whiteout objects can be created from userspace as well:
* mknod(2) with S_IFCHR and makedev(0, 0)
* renameat2(2) with RENAME_WHITEOUT,
creating the whiteout in the old place of the moved file.
This commit guards whiteout creation in both of these cases with
LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_MAKE_REG. Whiteout objects are *not* considered
character devices and are not bound to a driver.
LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_MAKE_REG describes the same permission class as a
whiteout object: creating one is the only S_IFCHR creation that the VFS
exempts from CAP_MKNOD, so it is as unprivileged as creating a regular
file, while LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_MAKE_CHAR and
LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_MAKE_BLOCK keep meaning the creation of devices that
expose a kernel interface [1].
For the mknod(2) case, introduce a Landlock erratum. The creation of
whiteout objects through mknod(2) was previously guarded using
LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_MAKE_CHAR, and it is now guarded using
LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_MAKE_REG.
For the renameat2(2) case, fix a bug: Before this commit, renameat2(2)
with RENAME_WHITEOUT would create a directory entry even when all
LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_MAKE_* rights were denied.
This does not affect normal renames within layered OverlayFS mounts:
When doing a regular rename() on a mounted fuse-overlayfs, it is the
fuse-overlayfs daemon that exercises renameat2() with RENAME_WHITEOUT,
and only the Landlock domain of that daemon is checked there.

sock_is_scoped() dereferences other->sk_socket->file->f_cred to read the
peer's Landlock domain when evaluating
LANDLOCK_SCOPE_ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET, without first checking that the
peer has a backing socket and file. hook_unix_find() performs the same
dereference for LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_RESOLVE_UNIX and does guard it.
Guard it here too and treat a peer with no backing file, such as a
kernel socket created by sock_create_kern(), as unscoped.
This is defensive hardening, not a fix for a reachable bug. The
unix_stream_connect() and unix_may_send() hooks run with the peer held
under unix_state_lock() and only after the AF_UNIX core has excluded
SOCK_DEAD, and no in-tree code binds a file-less AF_UNIX socket to an
abstract address, so other->sk_socket->file is always valid at these
call sites today.

The documentation of the socket_connect() LSM hook states that it
controls connecting a socket to a remote address. It has not been the
case since the addition of TCP Fast Open (RFC 7413) support, which
allows opening a TCP connection (thus, setting a socket's destination
address) via the MSG_FASTOPEN flag passed to
sendto()/sendmsg()/sendmmsg(). The problem then got duplicated into
MPTCP.
Landlock did not take it into account when its TCP support was added,
leaving a bypass of TCP connect policy.
Ideally a call to the LSM hook would be added in the fastopen code path,
in order to fix this generically. But connect() hooks are designed to
run with the socket locked, unlike sendmsg() hooks.

The quietness behaviour is as documented in the previous patch.
For optional accesses, since the existing deny_masks can only store
2x4bit of layer index, with no way to represent "no layer", we need to
either expand it or have another field to correctly handle quieting of
those. This commit uses the latter approach - we add another field to
store which optional access (of the 2) are covered by quiet rules in
their respective layers as stored in deny_masks.

Adds the UAPI for the quiet flags feature (but not the implementation
yet).
Even though currently LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_QUIET only affects audit
logging, in the future this can also be used as part of a supervisor
mechanism, where it will also suppress denial notifications on a
per-object basis. Thus the name is deliberately generic, as opposed to
e.g. LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_LOG_QUIET.
According to pahole, even after adding the struct access_masks
quiet_masks in struct landlock_hierarchy, the u32 log_* bitfield still
only has a size of 2 bytes, so there's minimal wasted space.

To avoid unnecessarily increasing the size of struct landlock_layer, we
make the layer level a u8 and use the space to store the flags struct.
struct layer_access_masks is renamed to struct layer_masks, and a new
field is added to track whether a quiet flag rule is seen for each
layer. Through use of bitfields, this does not increase the size of the
struct.

Add support for a second fine-grained UDP access right.
LANDLOCK_ACCESS_NET_CONNECT_SEND_UDP controls the ability to set the
remote port of a socket (via connect()) and to specify an explicit
destination when sending a datagram, to override any remote peer set on
a UDP socket (e.g. in sendto() or sendmsg()). It will be useful for
applications that send datagrams, and for some servers too (those
creating per-client sockets, which want to receive traffic only from a
specific address).
Similarly as for bind(), this access control is performed when
configuring sockets, not in hot code paths.
Add detection of when autobind is about to be required, and deny the
operation if the process would not be allowed to call bind(0)
explicitly. Autobind can only be performed in udp_lib_get_port() from
code paths already controlled by LSM hooks: when connect()ing, sending a
first datagram, and in some splice() EOF edge case which, afaiu, can
only happen after a remote peer has been set. This invariant needs to be
preserved to keep bind policies actually enforced.

LANDLOCK_SCOPE_SIGNAL must prevent a sandboxed process from signaling
processes outside its Landlock domain. It can be bypassed through the
asynchronous SIGIO delivery path.
A sandboxed process that owns any file or socket can arm it with
fcntl(fd, F_SETOWN, -pgid), fcntl(fd, F_SETSIG, SIGKILL) and O_ASYNC, so
that an I/O event makes the kernel deliver the chosen signal to the
whole process group. As the head of its process group's task list (the
default position right after fork()) that group can also hold the
non-sandboxed process that launched it, e.g. a supervisor or a security
monitor. The sandbox can thus kill or signal the processes
LANDLOCK_SCOPE_SIGNAL is meant to protect from it.
The scope is enforced in hook_file_send_sigiotask() against the Landlock
domain recorded at F_SETOWN time, not the live domain of the sender.
control_current_fowner() decides whether to record that domain and skips
recording it when the fowner target is in the caller's thread group,
which is safe only for a single-task target (PIDTYPE_PID, PIDTYPE_TGID).
For a process group (PIDTYPE_PGID) pid_task() returns only one member;
recording is skipped whenever that member shares the caller's thread
group, and hook_file_send_sigiotask() then lets the signal fan out to
the whole group unchecked.
Record the domain for every non single-process target so the scope is
enforced against each group member at delivery time.
That recording is necessary but not sufficient on its own: the kernel
signals a process group through its members' thread-group leaders, and
the leader of the registrant's own process can carry a different
Landlock domain than the sibling thread that armed the owner.
domain_is_scoped() would then deny that leader, even though commit
18eb75f3af40 ("landlock: Always allow signals between threads of the
same process") requires same-process delivery to be allowed.
hook_task_kill() avoids this by evaluating same_thread_group() live, per
recipient; the SIGIO path instead delegates the whole decision to a
single registration-time check, which a process-group fan-out cannot
honor.
So also record the registrant's thread group next to its domain and
exempt it at delivery: hook_file_send_sigiotask() allows the signal
whenever the recipient belongs to the registrant's own process,
restoring the same-process guarantee while keeping out-of-domain group
members blocked. The direct kill() path (hook_task_kill) already
evaluates the live domain and is unaffected.

Mark the kzalloc_flex() of struct landlock_details with
GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT so the allocation is charged to the calling task,
like the other Landlock per-domain allocations which have used
GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT forever.
Every property of landlock_details is caller-attributable: allocated by
landlock_restrict_self(2), owned by the caller's landlock_hierarchy,
contents are the caller's pid, uid, comm, and exe_path, lifetime bounded
by the caller's domain. While the caller may not know nor control the
size of this allocation (i.e. exe_path), this data should still be
accounted for it.
The deciding factor is whether userspace can trigger the allocation, not
whether the size of the data is known nor controlled by the caller.
This aligns with the kmemcg accounting policy established by commit
5d097056c9a0 ("kmemcg: account certain kmem allocations to memcg").
No new failure modes: the hierarchy and ruleset are allocated before
details and are already accounted, so landlock_restrict_self(2) already
returns -ENOMEM under memcg pressure. This change widens that existing
failure window slightly; it does not introduce a new error code.

Set audit_net.sk in current_check_access_socket() to provide the socket
object to audit_log_lsm_data(). This makes Landlock consistent with
AppArmor, which always sets .sk for socket operations, and with
SELinux's generic socket permission checks.
The socket's local and foreign address information (laddr, lport, faddr,
fport) is logged by the shared lsm_audit.c infrastructure when the
socket has bound or connected state. Fields with zero values are
suppressed by print_ipv4_addr()/print_ipv6_addr(), so the audit output
is unchanged for the common case of bind denials on unbound sockets.
For connect denials after a prior bind, the bound local address (laddr,
lport) appears before the existing sockaddr fields (daddr, dest).
No existing fields are removed or reordered, and the new field names
(laddr, lport, faddr, fport) are standard audit fields already emitted
by other LSMs through the same lsm_audit.c code path.
Add a connect_tcp_bound audit test that binds to an allowed port and
then connects to a denied one, verifying that the denial record reports
laddr/lport from the bound socket in addition to the connect
destination.

* Add a new access right LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_RESOLVE_UNIX, which
controls the lookup operations for named UNIX domain sockets. The
resolution happens during connect() and sendmsg() (depending on
socket type).
* Change access_mask_t from u16 to u32 (see below)
* Hook into the path lookup in unix_find_bsd() in af_unix.c, using a
LSM hook. Make policy decisions based on the new access rights
* Increment the Landlock ABI version.
* Minor test adaptations to keep the tests working.
* Document the design rationale for scoped access rights,
and cross-reference it from the header documentation.
With this access right, access is granted if either of the following
conditions is met:
* The target socket's filesystem path was allow-listed using a
LANDLOCK_RULE_PATH_BENEATH rule, *or*:
* The target socket was created in the same Landlock domain in which
LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_RESOLVE_UNIX was restricted.
In case of a denial, connect() and sendmsg() return EACCES, which is
the same error as it is returned if the user does not have the write
bit in the traditional UNIX file system permissions of that file.
The access_mask_t type grows from u16 to u32 to make space for the new
access right. This also doubles the size of struct layer_access_masks
from 32 byte to 64 byte. To avoid memory layout inconsistencies between
architectures (especially m68k), pack and align struct access_masks [2].
Document the (possible future) interaction between scoped flags and
other access rights in struct landlock_ruleset_attr, and summarize the
rationale, as discussed in code review leading up to [3].
This feature was created with substantial discussion and input from
Justin Suess, Tingmao Wang and Mickaël Salaün.

hook_cred_transfer() only copies the Landlock security blob when the
source credential has a domain. This is inconsistent with
landlock_restrict_self() which can set LOG_SUBDOMAINS_OFF on a
credential without creating a domain (via the ruleset_fd=-1 path): the
field is committed but not preserved across fork() because the child's
prepare_creds() calls hook_cred_transfer() which skips the copy when
domain is NULL.
This breaks the documented use case where a process mutes subdomain logs
before forking sandboxed children: the children lose the muting and
their domains produce unexpected audit records.
Fix this by unconditionally copying the Landlock credential blob.

In landlock_restrict_sibling_threads(), when the calling thread is
interrupted while waiting for sibling threads to prepare, it executes
a recovery path.
Previously, this path included a wait_for_completion() call on
all_prepared to prevent a Use-After-Free of the local shared_ctx.
However, this wait is redundant. Exiting the main do-while loop
already leads to a bottom cleanup section that unconditionally waits
for all_finished. Therefore, replacing the wait with a simple break
is safe, prevents UAF, and correctly unblocks the remaining task_works.
Clean up the error path by breaking the loop and updating the
surrounding comments to accurately reflect the state machine.

syzbot found a deadlock in landlock_restrict_sibling_threads().
When multiple threads concurrently call landlock_restrict_self() with
sibling thread restriction enabled, they can deadlock by mutually
queueing task_works on each other and then blocking in kernel space
(waiting for the other to finish).
Fix this by serializing the TSYNC operations within the same process
using the exec_update_lock. This prevents concurrent invocations
from deadlocking.
We use down_write_trylock() and restart the syscall if the lock
cannot be acquired immediately. This ensures that if a thread fails
to get the lock, it will return to userspace, allowing it to process
any pending TSYNC task_works from the lock holder, and then
transparently restart the syscall.

If task_work_add() failed, ctx->task is put but the tsync_works struct
is not reset to its previous state. The first consequence is that the
kernel allocates memory for dying threads, which could lead to
user-accounted memory exhaustion (not very useful nor specific to this
case). The second consequence is that task_work_cancel(), called by
cancel_tsync_works(), can dereference a NULL task pointer.
Fix this issues by keeping a consistent works->size wrt the added task
work. This is done in a new tsync_works_trim() helper which also cleans
up the shared_ctx and work fields.
As a safeguard, add a pointer check to cancel_tsync_works() and update
tsync_works_release() accordingly.

This is the exact same thing as the 'alloc_obj()' version, only much
smaller because there are a lot fewer users of the *alloc_flex()
interface.
As with alloc_obj() version, this was done entirely with mindless brute
force, using the same script, except using 'flex' in the pattern rather
than 'objs*'.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

The layer masks data structure tracks the requested but unfulfilled
access rights during an operation's security check. It stores one bit
for each combination of access right and layer index. If the bit is
set, that access right is not granted (yet) in the given layer and we
have to traverse the path further upwards to grant it.
Previously, the layer masks were stored as arrays mapping from access
right indices to layer_mask_t. The layer_mask_t value then indicates
all layers in which the given access right is still (tentatively)
denied.
This patch introduces struct layer_access_masks instead: This struct
contains an array with the access_mask_t of each (tentatively) denied
access right in that layer.
The hypothesis of this patch is that this simplifies the code enough
so that the resulting code will run faster:
* We can use bitwise operations in multiple places where we previously
looped over bits individually with macros. (Should require less
branch speculation and lends itself to better loop unrolling.)
* Code is ~75 lines smaller.
Other noteworthy changes:
* In no_more_access(), call a new helper function may_refer(), which
only solves the asymmetric case. Previously, the code interleaved
the checks for the two symmetric cases in RENAME_EXCHANGE. It feels
that the code is clearer when renames without RENAME_EXCHANGE are
more obviously the normal case.
Tradeoffs:
This change improves performance, at a slight size increase to the
layer masks data structure.
This fixes the size of the data structure at 32 bytes for all types of
access rights. (64, once we introduce a 17th filesystem access right).
For filesystem access rights, at the moment, the data structure has
the same size as before, but once we introduce the 17th filesystem
access right, it will double in size (from 32 to 64 bytes), as
access_mask_t grows from 16 to 32 bit [1].

Add errata section with code examples for querying errata and a warning
that most applications should not check errata. Use kernel-doc directives
to include errata descriptions from the header files instead of manual
links.
Also enhance existing DOC sections in security/landlock/errata/abi-*.h
files with Impact sections, and update the code comment in syscalls.c
to remind developers to update errata documentation when applicable.
This addresses the gap where the kernel implements errata tracking
but provides no user-facing documentation on how to use it, while
improving the existing technical documentation in-place rather than
duplicating it.
