Apologies, it should read "forward slashes" and not "backward slashes". The exact argument is "sock_file" followed by 4051 forward slashes. With that length, the index file and perms directory will open successfully (both paths are 4089 bytes long, assuming /sys/fs/selinux for selinuxfs). When reading the watch_with_perm entry, the "_with_perm" will be dropped and the "watch" permission will be read instead (the "_" character is the 4096th byte). On Android, PATH_MAX is 4096. This was found by our fuzzer for the selinux_check_access function [1].
