[PATCH 40/58] LSM: Use lsm_context in inode_notifysecctx hooks

Casey Schaufler casey at schaufler-ca.com
Fri May 31 23:10:02 UTC 2019


Convert SELinux and Smack to use the lsm_context structure
instead of a context/secid pair. There is some scaffolding involved
that will be removed when the related data is updated.
