Moving pidfds from the anonymous inode infrastructure to a separate tiny in-kernel filesystem similar to sockfs, pipefs, and anon_inodefs causes selinux denials and thus various userspace components that make heavy use of pidfds to fail as pidfds used anon_inode_getfile() which aren't subject to any LSM hooks. But dentry_open() is and that would cause regressions. The failures that are seen are selinux denials. But the core failure is dbus-broker. That cascades into other services failing that depend on dbus-broker. For example, when dbus-broker fails to start polkit and all the others won't be able to work because they depend on dbus-broker. The reason for dbus-broker failing is because it doesn't handle failures for SO_PEERPIDFD correctly. Last kernel release we introduced SO_PEERPIDFD (and SCM_PIDFD). SO_PEERPIDFD allows dbus-broker and polkit and others to receive a pidfd for the peer of an AF_UNIX socket. This is the first time in the history of Linux that we can safely authenticate clients in a race-free manner. dbus-broker immediately made use of this but messed up the error checking. It only allowed EINVAL as a valid failure for SO_PEERPIDFD. That's obviously problematic not just because of LSM denials but because of seccomp denials that would prevent SO_PEERPIDFD from working; or any other new error code from there. So this is catching a flawed implementation in dbus-broker as well. It has to fallback to the old pid-based authentication when SO_PEERPIDFD doesn't work no matter the reasons otherwise it'll always risk such failures. So overall that LSM denial should not have caused dbus-broker to fail. It can never assume that a feature released one kernel ago like SO_PEERPIDFD can be assumed to be available. So, the next fix separate from the selinux policy update is to try and fix dbus-broker at [3]. That should make it into Fedora as well. In addition the selinux reference policy should also be updated. See [4] for that. If Selinux is in enforcing mode in userspace and it encounters anything that it doesn't know about it will deny it by default. And the policy is entirely in userspace including declaring new types for stuff like nsfs or pidfs to allow it. For now we continue to raise S_PRIVATE on the inode if it's a pidfs inode which means things behave exactly like before.
