[PATCH 5/6] samples/landlock: Support POSIX message queue scoping
From: Oxana Kharitonova
Date: Wed Jul 22 2026 - 08:41:08 EST
Teach the sandboxer sample to request LANDLOCK_SCOPE_POSIX_MSG_QUEUE
through LL_SCOPED.
Add the "q" scope selector for POSIX message queues and document it in
the sample help text. Also allow POSIX message queue denials to be
quieted with "posix_msg_queue" through LL_QUIET_ACCESS.
