[PATCH v5 11/38] LSM: Separate idea of "major" LSM from "exclusive" LSM

Casey Schaufler casey at schaufler-ca.com
Tue Dec 11 22:42:47 UTC 2018


From: Kees Cook <keescook at chromium.org>

In order to both support old "security=" Legacy Major LSM selection, and
handling real exclusivity, this creates LSM_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE and updates
the selection logic to handle them.
