Several major distros, which ship the code, *despite* being out-of-tree, don't. > You've also been told that vfs_ routines should > remain without vfsmount, Oh, I've been told. But valid technical reason given? No. Such hand waving won't help your cause at all. It's time for you to actually look at the patches and stat technical reasons why they are wrong, or let them be included. Is it so hard to understand that the decision to include apparmor is not in your hands? You can argue against the concept of apparmor itself, but you better argue with Crispin, because I'm quite clueless about that part. When you've convinced him (and Linus (and Ubuntu, and SUSE, and Mandriva)) that apparmor is a stupid idea, then I'll give up. Good luck with that!
