### System call policies / vows
exile.h allows specifying which syscalls are permitted or denied. In the following example,
'ls' is never executed, as the specified "vows" do not allow the execve() system call. The

## Status
No release yet, experimental, API is unstable, builds will break on updates of this library.
Currently, it's mainly evolving from the needs of my other projects which use exile.h.

## Motivation and Background
exile.h unlocks existing Linux mechanisms to facilitate isolation of processes from resources. Limiting the scope of what programs can do helps defending the rest of the system when a process gets under attacker's control (when classic mitigations such as ASLR etc. failed). To this end, OpenBSD has the pledge() and unveil() functions available. Those functions are helpful mitigation mechanisms, but such accessible ways are unfortunately not readily available on Linux. This is where exile.h steps in.

Seccomp allows restricting the system calls available to a process and thus decrease the systems attack surface, but it generally is not easy to use. Requiring BPF filter instructions, you generally just can't make use of it right away. exile.h provides an API inspired by pledge(), building on top of seccomp. It also provides an interface to manually restrict the system calls that can be issued.
Traditional methods employed to restrict file system access, like different uids/gids, chroot, bind-mounts, namespaces etc. may require administrator intervention, are perhaps only suitable
for daemons and not desktop applications, or are generally rather involved. As a positive example, Landlock since 5.13 is a vast improvement to limit file system access of processes. It also greatly simplifies exile.h' implementation of fs isolation.

Abstracting those details may help developers bring sandboxing into their applications.

## Requirements
Kernel >=3.17
While mostly transparent to users of this API, kernel >= 5.13 is required to take advantage of Landlock. Furthermore, it depends on distro-provided kernels being reasonable and enabling it by default. In practise, Landlock maybe won't be used in some cases so exile.h will use a combination of namespaces, bind mounts and chroot as fallbacks.
While mostly transparent to users of this API, kernel >= 5.13 is required to take advantage of Landlock. Furthermore, it depends on distro-provided kernels being reasonable and enabling it by default. In practise, this means that Landlock probably won't be used for now, and exile.h will use a combination of namespaces, bind mounts and chroot as fallbacks.
