charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi, This is the v9 of the "quiet flag" series, implementing the feature as proposed in [1]. v8: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1775490344.git.m@maowtm.org/ v7: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1766330134.git.m@maowtm.org/ v6: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1765040503.git.m@maowtm.org/ v5: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1763931318.git.m@maowtm.org/ v4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1763330228.git.m@maowtm.org/ v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1761511023.git.m@maowtm.org/ v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1759686613.git.m@maowtm.org/ v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1757376311.git.m@maowtm.org/ v8..v9: - Refactor to store the collected rule flags in layer_masks instead (renamed from layer_access_masks). Got rid of layer_mask_t again. - Rebase sandboxer and net_tests on top of UDP support, resolving conflicts - Additional small changes, noted in each patch (Kept ABI version at 10) All text following this line is unchanged ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ v7..v8: - Rebase to mic/next - Re-introduced layer_mask_t due to need in first patch - Plumb through rule flags in hook_unix_find() - Some selftests patches were not properly clang-format'd, fixed now. - Minor env var handling change in sandboxer - Fix selftests use of audit_count_records() without EXPECT_EQ v6..v7: - Remove "landlock: Fix wrong type usage" (merged) - Revert back to taking rule_flags separately from landlock_request until we call landlock_log_denial (https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251219.ahn3aiJuKahb@digikod.net/) - Rebase to mic/next v5..v6 rebases on top of the new simpler disconnected directory handling, change some bools into u32, and fix some typo and style. v4..v5 addresses review feedbacks, most significantly: - reduces code changes by pushing rule_flags into landlock_request. - adding test cases for two layers handling different access bits. v3..v4 is a one-character formatting change, plus more tests. We now have 5 patches for the selftest - I'm happy to squash it into one depending on preference (and happy for Mickaël to do the squash if no other feedback): - selftests/landlock: Replace hard-coded 16 with a constant - selftests/landlock: add tests for quiet flag with fs rules - selftests/landlock: add tests for quiet flag with net rules - selftests/landlock: Add tests for quiet flag with scope - selftests/landlock: Add tests for invalid use of quiet flag v2..v3: Not much has changed in the actual functionality except various comment, typing, asserts and general style fixes based on feedback. The major new thing here is tests (a bit of KUnit squashed into the optional access commit, a lot of selftests especially in fs_tests.c). The added fs_tests should exercise code path for optional and non-optional access, renames, and mountpoint and disconnected directory handling. I will add the above missing bits to v4. Removed: - "Implement quiet for optional accesses" (squashed into "landlock: Suppress logging when quiet flag is present") Old feature summary below: The quiet flag allows a sandboxer to suppress audit logs for uninteresting denials. The flag can be set on objects and inherits downward in the filesystem hierarchy. On a denial, the youngest denying layer's quiet flag setting decides whether to audit. The motivation for this feature is to reduce audit noise, and also prepare for a future supervisor feature which will use this bit to suppress supervisor notifications. This patch introduces a new quiet access mask in the ruleset_attr, which gets eventually stored in the hierarchy. This allows the user to specify which access should be affected by quiet bits. One can then, for example, make it such that read accesses to certain files are not audited (but still denied), but all writes are still audited, regardless of location. The sandboxer is extended to show example usage of this feature, supporting quieting filesystem, network and scope accesses.

This means that a compromised binary, for example, cannot "turn off" Landlock auditing when it tries to access files, unless it denies access to the files itself. There is some debate to be had on whether, if a parent layer sets the quiet flag, but the request is denied by a deeper layer, whether Landlock should still audit anyway (since the rule author of the child layer likely did not expect the denial, so it would be good diagnostic). The current approach is to ignore the quiet on the parent layer and audit anyway.
