[PATCH security-next v3 21/29] LSM: Build ordered list of ordered LSMs for init

Kees Cook keescook at chromium.org
Tue Sep 25 00:18:24 UTC 2018


This constructs a list of ordered LSMs to initialize, using a hard-coded
list of only "integrity": minor LSMs continue to have direct hook calls,
and major LSMs continue to initialize separately.
