[PATCH net-next v4 0/3] net: af_unix: useful handling of LSM denials on SCM_RIGHTS

[Jori Koolstra <jkoolstra@xs4all.nl>]

Right now if some LSM denies an AF_UNIX socket peer to receive a
SCM_RIGHTS fd, the SCM_RIGHTS fd array will be cut short at
that point, and MSG_CTRUNC is set on return of recvmsg(2). This is
highly problematic behaviour, because it leaves the receiver
wondering what happened. As per man page MSG_CTRUNC is supposed to
indicate that the control buffer was sized too short, but suddenly
a permission error might result in the exact same flag being set.
Moreover, the receiver has no chance to determine how many fds got
originally sent and how many were suppressed.[1]

Add a SO_RIGHTS_NOTRUNC option to UNIX sockets to enable more useful
handling of LSM denials when receiving SCM_RIGHTS messages: instead of
truncating the message at the first blocked fd, keep every fd slot
and store the LSM errno in the blocked slot.

Changes:
v4:
  - Removed the __receive_fd() helper and moved logic into
    scm_recv_one_fd() directly (suggested by Brauner).
  - Moved selftest from Smack to BPF (LLM assisted).
  - Add arch specific socket option values for SO_RIGHTS_NOTRUNC.
  - Undo patch that replaced copy_from_sockptr() with
    copy_safe_from_sockptr().
v3:
  - Separated net and vfs changes.
  - Use kselftest_harness.h and system() to call the test script.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20260616143020.3458085-2-jkoolstra@xs4all.nl/
  - Reimplemented as a UNIX socket option instead of a per recvmsg(2) flag.
