Hello, I understand your frustration with the existing LSM hooks/API and your reasoning for abandoning LSM in favor of a new set of hooks, however, I think this sets a dangerous precedence which could result in an abundance of security related hooks scattered throughout the kernel. I would much rather see the LSM API extended/tweaked to support the needs of SAKURA and TOMOYO than ignored and duplicated; I suspect several others will say the same. You have made good progress with TOMOYO so far and if I can remember correctly you really only have one hurdle left, the VFS portion. Please continue to seek a solution to this that fits within the LSM framework. Thank you. -- paul moore linux @ hp -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
