Subject: [PATCH v1] ipe: add 'anonymous_memory' property for policy decisions
Currently, all existing IPE properties evaluate to FALSE for
operations triggered by anonymous memory regions. As a result,
IPE falls back to the policy's default action for such operations.
In policies where the default action is DENY, this behavior blocks
all anonymous memory operations, rendering binaries that rely on
anonymous memory unusable.
This commit introduces a new IPE property, 'anonymous_memory',
which evaluates to TRUE when an operation is triggered by an
anonymous memory region. This allows administrators to explicitly
allow or deny operations involving anonymous memory.

+ in the evaluation context is not backed by a file. It is controlled by

Anonymous memory isn't treated any differently from any other access in IPE.
