[PATCH v2 1/2] landlock: Fix LOG_SUBDOMAINS_OFF inheritance across fork()

[PATCH v2 1/2] landlock: Fix LOG_SUBDOMAINS_OFF inheritance across fork()

[Mickaël Salaün]

hook_cred_transfer() only copies the Landlock security blob when the
source credential has a domain.  This is inconsistent with
landlock_restrict_self() which can set LOG_SUBDOMAINS_OFF on a
credential without creating a domain (via the ruleset_fd=-1 path): the
field is committed but not preserved across fork() because the child's
prepare_creds() calls hook_cred_transfer() which skips the copy when
domain is NULL.

This breaks the documented use case where a process mutes subdomain logs
before forking sandboxed children: the children lose the muting and
their domains produce unexpected audit records.

Fix this by unconditionally copying the Landlock credential blob.

[PATCH v2 2/2] landlock: Allow TSYNC with LOG_SUBDOMAINS_OFF and fd=-1

[Mickaël Salaün]

LANDLOCK_RESTRICT_SELF_TSYNC does not allow
LANDLOCK_RESTRICT_SELF_LOG_SUBDOMAINS_OFF with ruleset_fd=-1, preventing
a multithreaded process from atomically propagating subdomain log muting
to all threads without creating a domain layer.  Relax the fd=-1
condition to accept TSYNC alongside LOG_SUBDOMAINS_OFF, and update the
documentation accordingly.

Add flag validation tests for all TSYNC combinations with ruleset_fd=-1,
and audit tests verifying both transition directions: muting via TSYNC
(logged to not logged) and override via TSYNC (not logged to logged).
