[PATCH v8 07/11] LSM: Helpers for attribute names and filling an lsm_ctx

Tue Apr 11 15:59:17 UTC 2023


Add lsm_name_to_attr(), which translates a text string to a
LSM_ATTR value if one is available.

Add lsm_fill_user_ctx(), which fills a struct lsm_ctx, including
the trailing attribute value. The .len value is padded to a multiple
of the size of the structure for alignment.

All are used in module specific components of LSM system calls.
