landlock.7: Document Landlock ABI v2 (file reparenting; kernel 5.19)
PATCH v2 1/2 landlock.7: Document Landlock ABI v2 (file reparenting; kernel 5.19)
* Add the description for LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_REFER,
in line with recent update to the uapi headers:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-security-module/[email protected]/T/
* VERSIONS: Add a table of Landlock versions and their changes. Briefly talk about how to probe ABI levels and warn users about the special semantics of the LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_REFER right.
* Add LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_REFER to the code example.
Code review threads for the "refer" feature:
* https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/ (initial commit)
* https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/ (bugfix)

Thank you, that is a good observation, the "Kemper notectomy". This is very helpful, exactly the kind of review I was hoping for. :)
How about this rewording:
LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_WRITE
Open a file with write access.
When opening files for writing, you will often additionally need the LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_TRUNCATE right. In many cases, these system calls truncate existing files when overwriting them (e.g. creat(2)).
This paragraph started with "note that" because it talks about an unintuitive side-aspect of the LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_WRITE_FILE right.
I reworded it to make it more clear why that should be relevant to the reader (because creat(2) and its open(2) equivalent are used very commonly).
Does that sound better?
The man page also explains it in more detail in the "Truncating files" section further below.
