Hi Peter,
I've gone back over the discussion of this feature and some of the
background in the past couple of years on this list...
We've got a kernel deadline coming up in the next month if we want to
get something included in RHEL7 if you have the interest and time to
evolve this patch (the userspace patch can follow...).
As has been discussed, passing in an inode reference is incomplete,
since it would need to be qualified by a device reference at minimum.
And even then, it isn't atomic and could change by the time the kernel
even sees this rule request.
So, the next step is to convert the path to a device/inode in the kernel. If
this is done at the time of registering the filter rule, if/when the
rule is invalidated then the rule would be dropped, logged. It also
means that anything else also hardlinked to it would be acted upon.
Going one step further, if instead we can arrange an fsnotify() hook on
rule registration, we could act on that path when it is executed,
renamed, unlinked (and destroyed if the refcount goes to zero), etc.
So, it should be passed as a path, logging the rule addition with path
only at first. When the rule is triggered then log the requested path,
effective path, device/inode along with the user context.
The user, carefully crafting other rules can give other information.
A watch on the containing directory (/usr/bin) could help in case that
executable pathname disappears and re-appears since the containing
directory is less likely to go away, but it will be noisy.
Does all this make sense?
Let's deal later with namespaces, containers, mounts, chroots, bind
mounts, etc...
