I don't think that this provides sensible behavior to userspace. On a
transient memory allocation failure, instead of returning an error to
the sender and letting them handle it, this will just proceed with
sending the message without its associated security information, and
potentially split messages on arbitrary boundaries because it cannot
tell whether the sender had the same security information. I think
you instead need to change unix_get_secdata() to return an error on
allocation failure and propagate that up to the sender. Not a fan of
this change in general both due to extra overhead on this code path
and potential for breakage on allocation failures. I know it was
motivated by paul's observation that we won't be able to fit many more
secids into the cb but not sure we have to go there prematurely,
especially absent its usage by upstream AA (no unix_stream_connect
hook implementation upstream). Also not sure how the whole bpf local
storage approach to supporting security modules (or at least bpf lsm)
might reduce need for expanding these structures?
