[RFC PATCH 1/2] fs/xattr: add *at family syscalls
From: Christian Göttsche
Date: Tue Aug 30 2022 - 11:29:26 EST
Add the four syscalls setxattrat(), getxattrat(), listxattrat() and
removexattrat() to enable extended attribute operations via file
descriptors. This can be used from userspace to avoid race conditions,
especially on security related extended attributes, like SELinux labels
("security.selinux") via setfiles(8).
Use the do_{name}at() pattern from fs/open.c.
Use a single flag parameter for extended attribute flags (currently
XATTR_CREATE and XATTR_REPLACE) and *at() flags to not exceed six
syscall arguments in setxattrat().
