[PATCH V2 RESEND] Docs: Update LSM/apparmor.rst

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



After the deprecation of CONFIG_DEFAULT_SECURITY, it is no longer used
to enable and configure AppArmor. Since kernel 5.0,
`CONFIG_SECURITY_APPARMOR_BOOTPARAM_VALUE` is not used either.
Instead, the CONFIG_LSM parameter manages the order and selection of LSMs.
