Hello! This is v2 RFC patch dedicated to socket protocols restriction.

It is based on the landlock's mic-next branch on top of v6.9 kernel

Hello Mikhail!

I patched in your patchset and tried to use the feature with a small
demo tool, but I ran into what I think is a bug -- do you happen to
know what this might be?

I used 6.10-rc1 as a base and patched your patches on top.

The code is a small tool called "nonet", which does the following:

  - Disable socket creation with a Landlock ruleset with the following
    attributes:
  
    struct landlock_ruleset_attr attr = {
      .handled_access_socket = LANDLOCK_ACCESS_SOCKET_CREATE,
    };

  - open("/dev/null", O_WRONLY)

Expected result:

  - open() should work

Observed result:

  - open() fails with EACCES.

I traced this with perf, and found that the open() gets rejected from
Landlock's hook_file_open, whereas hook_socket_create does not get
invoked.  This is surprising to me -- Enabling a policy for socket
creation should not influence the outcome of opening files!

Tracing commands:

  sudo perf probe hook_socket_create '$params'
  sudo perf probe 'hook_file_open%return $retval'
  sudo perf record -e 'probe:*' -g -- ./nonet
  sudo perf report
 
You can find the tool in my landlock-examples repo in the nonet_bug branch:
https://github.com/gnoack/landlock-examples/blob/nonet_bug/nonet.c

Landlock is enabled like this:
https://github.com/gnoack/landlock-examples/blob/nonet_bug/sandbox_socket.c

Do you have a hunch what might be going on?

Thanks,
–Günther
