	  Landlock is a sandboxing mechanism that enables processes to restrict
	  themselves (and their future children) by gradually enforcing
	  tailored access control policies.  A Landlock security policy is a
	  set of access rights (e.g. open a file in read-only, make a
	  directory, etc.) tied to a file hierarchy.  Such policy can be
	  configured and enforced by any processes for themselves using the
	  dedicated system calls: landlock_create_ruleset(),
	  landlock_add_rule(), and landlock_restrict_self().

	  See Documentation/userspace-api/landlock.rst for further information.

	  If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.  Otherwise,
	  you should also prepend "landlock," to the content of CONFIG_LSM to
	  enable Landlock at boot time.
