Subject: [PATCH v9 7/9] samples/landlock: Add LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_NO_INHERIT to landlock-sandboxer
Date: Sat, 20 Jun 2026 23:52:20 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260621035223.2651547-8-utilityemal77@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260621035223.2651547-1-utilityemal77@gmail.com>

Add a new LL_FS_NO_INHERIT environment variable to the sandboxer.
Paths listed in it are added with the LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_NO_INHERIT
flag, demonstrating how to set up a parent directory with broader
access than its children.

The flag is silently skipped on kernels older than ABI 11.

Notes:
    Changes since v8:
    - Added an explicit ABI 10 case to the sandboxer's downgrade switch so
      the NO_INHERIT flag is stripped on kernels with ABI < 11.
    - Updated for the merged quiet-flag env-var renames, LANDLOCK_ABI_LAST,
      and help text (ABI >= 11).
    - Rebased onto mic/next.
