Sun Dec 7 01:51:29 UTC 2025
Adds support to landlock-sandboxer with environment variable
LL_FS_NO_INHERIT, which can be tagged on any filesystem object to
suppress access right inheritance.
v3..v4 changes:
* Modified LL_FS_R(O/W)_NO_INHERIT variables to a single variable
to allow access rule combination. (credit to Tingmao Wang)
v2..v3 changes:
* Minor formatting fixes
