Again, you need to base your work on the latest kernel version.

The minimal required configuration is listed in the "config" file. You 
need to update it for the network tests as well. You missed the 
ptrace_test. To test everything you can run:
fakeroot make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=landlock gen_tar
and then extract 
tools/testing/selftests/kselftest_install/kselftest-packages/kselftest.tar.gz 
and execute run_kselftest.sh on your VM.

It is more a changelog than issues. ;)

Thanks for these explanations!
