.SH NAME
landlock_add_rule \- add a new Landlock rule to a ruleset
.SH LIBRARY
Standard C library
.RI ( libc ", " \-lc )
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
.BR "#include <linux/landlock.h>" "  /* Definition of " LANDLOCK_* " constants */"
.BR "#include <sys/syscall.h>" "     /* Definition of " SYS_* " constants */"
.PP
.BI "int syscall(SYS_landlock_add_rule, int " ruleset_fd ,
.BI "            enum landlock_rule_type " rule_type ,
.BI "            const void *" rule_attr ", uint32_t " flags );
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
A Landlock rule describes an action on an object.
An object is currently a file hierarchy,
and the related filesystem actions
are defined with a set of access rights.
This
.BR landlock_add_rule ()
system call enables adding a new Landlock rule to an existing ruleset
created with
.BR landlock_create_ruleset (2).
See
.BR landlock (7)
for a global overview.
.PP
.I ruleset_fd
is a Landlock ruleset file descriptor obtained with
.BR landlock_create_ruleset (2).
.PP
.I rule_type
identifies the structure type pointed to by
.IR rule_attr .
Currently, Linux supports the following
.I rule_type
value:
.TP
.B LANDLOCK_RULE_PATH_BENEATH
This defines the object type as a file hierarchy.
In this case,
.I rule_attr
points to the following structure:
.IP
.in +4n
.EX
struct landlock_path_beneath_attr {
    __u64 allowed_access;
    __s32 parent_fd;
} __attribute__((packed));
.EE
.in
.IP
.I allowed_access
contains a bitmask of allowed filesystem actions for this file hierarchy
(see
.B Filesystem actions
in
.BR landlock (7)).
.IP
.I parent_fd
is an opened file descriptor, preferably with the
.I O_PATH
flag,
which identifies the parent directory of the file hierarchy or
just a file.
.PP
.I flags
must be 0.
.SH RETURN VALUE
On success,
.BR landlock_add_rule ()
returns 0.
.SH ERRORS
.BR landlock_add_rule ()
can fail for the following reasons:
.TP
.B EOPNOTSUPP
Landlock is supported by the kernel but disabled at boot time.
.TP
.B EINVAL
.I flags
is not 0, or the rule accesses are inconsistent (i.e.,
.I rule_attr\->allowed_access
is not a subset of the ruleset handled accesses).
.TP
.B ENOMSG
Empty accesses (i.e.,
.I rule_attr\->allowed_access
is 0).
.TP
.B EBADF
.I ruleset_fd
is not a file descriptor for the current thread,
or a member of
.I rule_attr
is not a file descriptor as expected.
.TP
.B EBADFD
.I ruleset_fd
is not a ruleset file descriptor,
or a member of
.I rule_attr
is not the expected file descriptor type.
.TP
.B EPERM
.I ruleset_fd
has no write access to the underlying ruleset.
.TP
.B EFAULT
.I rule_attr
was not a valid address.
.SH STANDARDS
Linux.
.SH HISTORY
Linux 5.13.
