Add a new flag LANDLOCK_CREATE_RULESET_VERSION to landlock_create_ruleset(2). This enables to retreive a Landlock ABI version that is useful to efficiently follow a best-effort security approach. Indeed, it would be a missed opportunity to abort the whole sandbox building, because some features are unavailable, instead of protecting users as much as possible with the subset of features provided by the running kernel. This new flag enables user space to identify the minimum set of Landlock features supported by the running kernel without relying on a filesystem interface (e.g. /proc/version, which might be inaccessible) nor testing multiple syscall argument combinations (i.e. syscall bisection). New Landlock features will be documented and tied to a minimum version number (greater than 1). The current version will be incremented for each new kernel release supporting new Landlock features. User space libraries can leverage this information to se...
