Subject: [PATCH v5 2/2] selftests/landlock: test SCOPE_SIGNAL on the SIGIO/fowner pgid path
Date: Thu, 04 Jun 2026 23:17:05 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43370e89f7a896a583bf33d1cd171d02630e61bf.1780614610.git.hexlabsecurity@proton.me> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1780614610.git.hexlabsecurity@proton.me>

Add regression tests for the LANDLOCK_SCOPE_SIGNAL handling of the
asynchronous SIGIO delivery path (fcntl(F_SETOWN)) with a process-group
owner.

sigio_to_pgid_members covers the bypass: a sandboxed process at the head
of its process group's PID hlist (the default after fork()) arms
F_SETOWN(-pgrp) + O_ASYNC and triggers the fan-out; the in-domain owner
must be signaled (proving the trigger fired) while the non-sandboxed
member of the group, outside the domain, must not.

sigio_to_pgid_self covers the same-process guarantee: the owner is
registered from a sandboxed non-leader thread, whose domain differs from
the thread-group leader the kernel signals for a process-group owner.
That leader belongs to the owner's own process and must still be signaled.

Without the fix the first test sees the out-of-domain member signaled and
the second sees the owner's own leader denied.
