Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 17/42] securityfs: use fc_init_pseudo()
Date: Sat, 14 Nov 2026 14:01:58 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261114-work-loop-pseudo-v2-17-98639a2286fb@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261114-work-loop-pseudo-v2-0-98639a2286fb@kernel.org>
Initialize securityfs as a pseudo filesystem. This raises SB_I_PSEUDO and
also SB_I_NOEXEC and SB_I_NODEV. securityfs never holds executables or
device nodes.
AppArmor puts a .null device node into securityfs but only ever opens
it via dentry_open() which doesn't care about SB_I_NODEV.
