A Landlock ruleset is mainly a red-black tree with Landlock rules as
nodes.  This enables quick update and lookup to match a requested
access, e.g. to a file.  A ruleset is usable through a dedicated file
descriptor (cf. following commit implementing syscalls) which enables a
process to create and populate a ruleset with new rules.

A domain is a ruleset tied to a set of processes.  This group of rules
defines the security policy enforced on these processes and their future
children.  A domain can transition to a new domain which is the
intersection of all its constraints and those of a ruleset provided by
the current process.  This modification only impact the current process.
This means that a process can only gain more constraints (i.e. lose
accesses) over time.

normally done by whoever pulls your series. I've only seen Link: tags
added when needing to refer to something else not included in the
series.)
It is an insurance to not lose history. :)

I'd expect this to be named "release" rather than "put" since it doesn't
do any lifetime reference counting.
It does decrement rule->object->usage .

This is checking that the largest possible stored value is correctly
within the LANDLOCK_MAX_* macro value?
Yes, there is builtin checks for all Landlock limits.

The locking all looks right, and given your test coverage and syzkaller
work, it's hard for me to think of ways to prove it out any better. :)
Thanks!
