One implication of this approach is that the chown+chmod right on a
directory's contents are always going together with the same rights on
the directory itself.

For example, if you grant chmod+chown access rights for "datadir/",
the command "chmod 0600 datadir/file1" will work, but so will the
command "chmod 0600 datadir". But the approach of checking just the
parent directory's rights is also inflexible if you think through the
kinds of rights you can grant with it. (It would also not be possible
to grant chmod+chown on individual files.)

Do you have any thoughts on how to resolve this if this flexibility
might be needed?

I wonder whether the right way to resolve this would be to give users
a way to make that distinction at the level of landlock_add_rule(),
with an API like this (note the additional flag):

  err = landlock_add_rule(ruleset_fd, LANDLOCK_RULE_PATH_BENEATH,
                          &path_beneath, LANDLOCK_STRICTLY_BENEATH);
                                         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Multiple calls of landlock_add_rule() on the same file are already
today joining the requested access rights, so it would be possible to
mix-and-match "strict beneath" with "beneath" rights on the same
directory, and it would work in the same way for other access rights
as well.

To be clear: I'm proposing this approach not because I think it should
be part of this patch set, but because it would be good to have a way
forward if that kind of flexibility is needed in the future.

Does that seem reasonable?

ABI version 3 has not made it into a stable kernel yet; I wonder
whether it wouldn't be easier to just bundle the truncate, chmod and
chown rights as part of ABI version 3 (assuming that the patches make
it into a stable release together)?

Mickaël, do you have an opinion on this?
