An earlier version of the patch set used the seccomp filter chain.
Mickaël, what exactly was wrong with that approach other than that the
seccomp() syscall was awkward for you to use? You could add a
seccomp_add_landlock_rule() syscall if you needed to.
As a side comment, why is this an LSM at all, let alone a non-stacking
LSM? It would make a lot more sense to me to make Landlock depend on
having LSMs configured in but to call the landlock hooks directly from
the security_xyz() hooks.
Please, no. It is my serious intention to have at least the
infrastructure blob management in within a release or two, and
I think that's all Landlock needs. The security_xyz() hooks are
sufficiently hackish as it is without unnecessarily adding more
special cases.
