Re: [PATCH v38 39/39] LSM: Create lsm_module_list system call

Create a system call to report the list of Linux Security Modules
that are active on the system. The list is provided as an array
of LSM ID numbers.

With lsm_self_attr(), this would look like a dir/file structure.

Would it be useful for user space to list all the currently used LSMs instead of only retrieving information about a known (list of) LSM?
What is the use case for this syscall?

As for the other syscall, this should also be in the same dedicated "wire syscalls" patch.

Same here.
