landlock_add_rule(2) System Calls Manual landlock_add_rule(2)
landlock_add_rule - add a new Landlock rule to a ruleset
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
#include <linux/landlock.h> /* Definition of LANDLOCK_* constants */ #include <sys/syscall.h> /* Definition of SYS_* constants */ int syscall(SYS_landlock_add_rule, int ruleset_fd, enum landlock_rule_type rule_type, const void *rule_attr, uint32_t flags);
A Landlock rule describes an action on an object. An object is currently a file hierarchy, and the related filesystem actions are defined with a set of access rights. This landlock_add_rule() system call enables adding a new Landlock rule to an existing ruleset created with landlock_create_ruleset(2). See landlock(7) for a global overview. ruleset_fd is a Landlock ruleset file descriptor obtained with landlock_create_ruleset(2). rule_type identifies the structure type pointed to by rule_attr. Currently, Linux supports the following rule_type value: LANDLOCK_RULE_PATH_BENEATH This defines the object type as a file hierarchy. In this case, rule_attr points to the following structure: struct landlock_path_beneath_attr { __u64 allowed_access; __s32 parent_fd; } __attribute__((packed)); allowed_access contains a bitmask of allowed filesystem actions for this file hierarchy (see Filesystem actions in landlock(7)). parent_fd is an opened file descriptor, preferably with the O_PATH flag, which identifies the parent directory of the file hierarchy or just a file. flags must be 0.
On success, landlock_add_rule() returns 0.
landlock_add_rule() can fail for the following reasons: EOPNOTSUPP Landlock is supported by the kernel but disabled at boot time. EINVAL flags is not 0, or the rule accesses are inconsistent (i.e., rule_attr->allowed_access is not a subset of the ruleset handled accesses). ENOMSG Empty accesses (i.e., rule_attr->allowed_access is 0). EBADF ruleset_fd is not a file descriptor for the current thread, or a member of rule_attr is not a file descriptor as expected. EBADFD ruleset_fd is not a ruleset file descriptor, or a member of rule_attr is not the expected file descriptor type. EPERM ruleset_fd has no write access to the underlying ruleset. EFAULT rule_attr was not a valid address.
