Hi Thomas,
Thanks for the report.

This group is correct but I'm wondering why the maintainer (me) and the
reviewer (Günther) weren't in Cc.
What do we need to do to subscribe to such report? Why isn't
automatically inferred from the MAINTAINER file?

I'm curious about the errors you get. They are standard kselftests that
should work following this workflow:
make TARGETS=landlock O=build kselftest-gen_tar
and then running ./build/kselftests/kselftest_install/run_kselftest.sh
as root in a VM. The required kernel configuration is listed in
tools/testing/selftests/landlock/config
To make it easier, we wrote a wrapper to test everything with UML:

Yes, the test is flaky under pressure.

I don't think it directly depends on your patch but it might be a side
effect. Anyway, I've been working on fixing this kind of issue and just
sent a fix:
