[PATCH v4 1/4] landlock: Support file truncation

Günther Noack gnoack3000 at gmail.com
Sun Aug 14 19:26:00 UTC 2022


Introduce the LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_TRUNCATE flag for file truncation.

This flag hooks into the path_truncate LSM hook and covers file
truncation using truncate(2), ftruncate(2), open(2) with O_TRUNC, as
well as creat().

This change also increments the Landlock ABI version, updates
corresponding selftests, and includes minor documentation changes to
document the flag.

 ====================
 
+File truncation (ABI < 3)
+-------------------------
+
+File truncation could not be denied before the third Landlock ABI, so it is
+always allowed when using a kernel that only supports the first or second ABI.
+
+Starting with the Landlock ABI version 3, it is now possible to securely
+control truncation thanks to the new `LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_TRUNCATE` access
+right.

 File renaming and linking (ABI 1)
