io-uring cmd support was added through ee692a21e9bf ("fs,io_uring: add infrastructure for uring-cmd"), this extended the struct file_operations to allow a new command which each subsystem can use to enable command passthrough. Add an LSM specific for the command passthrough which enables LSMs to inspect the command details. This was discussed long ago without no clear pointer for something conclusive, so this enables LSMs to at least reject this new file operation.From an io_uring perspective, this looks fine to me. It may be easier if I take this through my tree due to the moving of the files, or the security side can do it but it'd have to then wait for merge window (and post io_uring branch merge) to do so. Just let me know. If done outside of my tree, feel free to add:I forgot to add this earlier ... let's see how the timing goes, I don't expect the LSM/Smack/SELinux bits to be ready and tested before the merge window opens so I'm guessing this will not be an issue in practice, but thanks for the heads-up.
I have a patch that may or may not be appropriate. I ran the liburing tests without (additional) failures, but it looks like there isn't anything there testing uring_cmd. Do you have a test tucked away somewhere I can use? Thanks.
