Subject: [PATCH v3 -next 11/18] LSM: rename the inode xattr hooks to path_xattr hooks
Date: Tue, 27 Oct 2026 20:11:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261027121151.1887650-12-caixinchen1@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261027121151.1887650-1-caixinchen1@huawei.com>
The inode_setxattr, inode_getxattr, inode_listxattr and
inode_removexattr hooks receive a struct path, so rename them to
path_setxattr, path_getxattr, path_listxattr and path_removexattr to
follow the path_* naming convention used for the other hooks that
take a struct path (path_chmod, path_chown, ...). Rename the
security_inode_*xattr() inline wrappers to security_path_*xattr()
and the SELinux, Smack, EVM and IMA implementations
accordingly. The inode_post_setxattr and inode_post_removexattr
notification hooks still take a dentry and keep their names.
BPF programs attach to LSM hooks by name ("lsm/inode_getxattr",
"lsm.s/inode_setxattr", ...), so update the BPF selftests to the new
names.

1. These kfuncs are only permitted from BPF LSM function.
2. These kfuncs should not call into other LSM hooks, i.e. security_*(). For
example, ``bpf_get_file_xattr()`` does not use ``vfs_getxattr()``, because
- the latter calls LSM hook ``security_inode_getxattr``.
+ the latter calls LSM hook ``security_path_getxattr``.
