From: Daniel Colascione <redacted> This change uses the anon_inodes and LSM infrastructure introduced in the previous patches to give SELinux the ability to control anonymous-inode files that are created using the new anon_inode_getfd_secure() function. A SELinux policy author detects and controls these anonymous inodes by adding a name-based type_transition rule that assigns a new security type to anonymous-inode files created in some domain. The name used for the name-based transition is the name associated with the anonymous inode for file listings --- e.g., "[userfaultfd]" or "[perf_event]". Example: type uffd_t; type_transition sysadm_t sysadm_t : anon_inode uffd_t "[userfaultfd]"; allow sysadm_t uffd_t:anon_inode { create }; (The next patch in this series is necessary for making userfaultfd support this new interface. The example above is just for exposition.)

I mean is it possible that /dev/kvm context_inode may not have its label initialized? If so, then v12 of the patch series can be used as is. Otherwise, I will send the next version which rollbacks v14 and v13, except for this check. Kindly confirm.The context_inode should always be initialized already. I'm not fond though of silently returning -EACCES here. At the least we should have a pr_err() or pr_warn() here. In reality, this could only occur in the case of a kernel bug or memory corruption so it used to be a candidate for WARN_ON() or BUG_ON() or similar but I know that BUG_ON() at least is frowned upon these days.
Got it. I'll add a pr_err(). Thanks a lot.
