    [2/3] Add an initial seal argument to kern_shm_open() · 0cd95859
    Kyle Evans authored
    Now that flags may be set on posixshm, add an argument to kern_shm_open()
    for the initial seals. To maintain past behavior where callers of
    shm_open(2) are guaranteed to not have any seals applied to the fd they're
    given, apply F_SEAL_SEAL for existing callers of kern_shm_open. A special
    flag could be opened later for shm_open(2) to indicate that sealing should
    be allowed.
    
    We currently restrict initial seals to F_SEAL_SEAL. We cannot error out if
    F_SEAL_SEAL is re-applied, as this would easily break shm_open() twice to a
    shmfd that already existed. A note's been added about the assumptions we've
    made here as a hint towards anyone wanting to allow other seals to be
    applied at creation.
