Code refactoring #34

Open sm1ling-knight opened 3 weeks ago

sm1ling-knight commented 3 weeks ago

We can try to improve landlock code structure and extensibility, remove repetitive patterns.

As @gnoack suggested it'll be effective to gather refactoring ideas before implementing the patch itself. It'll probably be convenient to suggest any ideas in the comments on this issue so that they can be discussed and approved or rejected here. All approved ideas can be marked in the description of this issue.

After collecting ideas, someone can be assigned to implement the appropriate patch.

Note that #1 is related to refactoring the internal structures of Landlock, but probably the implementation of more efficient data structure for domains should be a separate patch.

Some of the common helpers should be inlined if it's not possible to generalize them [1].
