Hi,

I'm not sure I follow... When doing peel-off, security_sctp_sk_clone()
should be called, which sets the peel-off socket's sksec->sid to
asoc->secid, not the other way around. (Are we hitting the language
barrier here? :)

I *think* in case of a client socket it is expected for the
peeloff-style child socket to just inherit the same sksec->sid. But
frankly I haven't been with SELinux and kernel development long enough
to understand the intricacies of SELinux's network connection handling
very well... Hopefully Paul/Richard/Stephen can give a more confident
answer/review here.
