If it's a state that userspace should never be able to reach, then yes, I think a WARN_ON_ONCE() would be nice. > We just did some more tests (for the next patch series) and it turns out > that may_open() can return EACCES before another part returns ENXIO. > > As a reminder, the next series will deny access to block devices, > character devices, fifo and socket when opened with O_MAYEXEC *and* if > any policy is enforced (via the sysctl). > > The question is then: do we prefer to return EACCES when a policy is > enforced (on a socket), or do we stick to the ENXIO?

I think EACCES is correct for these cases, since it's a new flag, etc. -- Kees Cook
