When lockdown is enabled, debugfs_is_locked_down returns 1. It will then trigger the following: WARNING: CPU: 48 PID: 3747 CPU: 48 PID: 3743 Comm: bash Not tainted 5.4.0-1946.x86_64 #1 Hardware name: Oracle Corporation ORACLE SERVER X7-2/ASM, MB, X7-2, BIOS 41060400 05/20/2019 RIP: 0010:do_dentry_open+0x343/0x3a0 Code: 00 40 08 00 45 31 ff 48 c7 43 28 40 5b e7 89 e9 02 ff ff ff 48 8b 53 28 4c 8b 72 70 4d 85 f6 0f 84 10 fe ff ff e9 f5 fd ff ff <0f> 0b 41 bf ea ff ff ff e9 3b ff ff ff 41 bf e6 ff ff ff e9 b4 fe RSP: 0018:ffffb8740dde7ca0 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: ffffffff89e88a40 RBX: ffff928c8e6b6f00 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: ffff928dbfd97778 RDI: ffff9285cff685c0 RBP: ffffb8740dde7cc8 R08: 0000000000000821 R09: 0000000000000030 R10: 0000000000000057 R11: ffffb8740dde7a98 R12: ffff926ec781c900 R13: ffff928c8e6b6f10 R14: ffffffff8936e190 R15: 0000000000000001 FS: 00007f45f6777740(0000) GS:ffff928dbfd80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007fff95e0d5d8 CR3: 0000001ece562006 CR4: 00000000007606e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 PKRU: 55555554 Call Trace: vfs_open+0x2d/0x30 path_openat+0x2d4/0x1680 ? tty_mode_ioctl+0x298/0x4c0 do_filp_open+0x93/0x100 ? strncpy_from_user+0x57/0x1b0 ? __alloc_fd+0x46/0x150 do_sys_open+0x182/0x230 __x64_sys_openat+0x20/0x30 do_syscall_64+0x60/0x1b0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x170/0x1d5 RIP: 0033:0x7f45f5e5ce02 Code: 25 00 00 41 00 3d 00 00 41 00 74 4c 48 8d 05 25 59 2d 00 8b 00 85 c0 75 6d 89 f2 b8 01 01 00 00 48 89 fe bf 9c ff ff ff 0f 05 <48> 3d 00 f0 ff ff 0f 87 a2 00 00 00 48 8b 4c 24 28 64 48 33 0c 25 RSP: 002b:00007fff95e0d2e0 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000101 RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 0000561178c069b0 RCX: 00007f45f5e5ce02 RDX: 0000000000000241 RSI: 0000561178c08800 RDI: 00000000ffffff9c RBP: 00007fff95e0d3e0 R08: 0000000000000020 R09: 0000000000000005 R10: 00000000000001b6 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: 0000000000000003 R14: 0000000000000001 R15: 0000561178c08800 Change the return type to int and return -EPERM when lockdown is enabled to remove the warning above.
