Since capability doesn't actually fill out a label, should it not also return -EOPNOTSUPP? Any LSM which does fill out the label should then just make sure not to call the capability hook, but if cap_dentry_init_security() is being called, we can assume noone filled in the label, right? -serge -- 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
