This goes straight into my reference list. Sandboxing a process is confusing on Linux.
I appreciate that the article focuses on approaches that drop privileges without having root oneself. I've seen landlock referenced at time (https://lwn.net/Articles/859908/), but never so clearly illustrated (the verbosity feels like Vulkan).
Out of curiosity, I'd wish even more approaches were compared, even if they require root. I was about to mention seccomp-bpf as an approach that requires root, but skimming the LWN article I posted above I find: "Like seccomp(), Landlock is an unprivileged sandboxing mechanism; it allows a process to confine itself". It seems like I was wrong, and seccomp could be compared/contrasted.
