I looked in the code, it looks like AppArmor doesn't register any callbacks for the ib_* security hooks, and if no hook is registered it should return 0. Can you tell me more about your setup so I can create a reproducer? What OS are you using? Can you double check that SELinux isn't enabled (see output of sestatus). > Hello, I am not using SELinux on my system. I do have apparmor, but it is only configured for lxc. # apparmor_status apparmor module is loaded. 5 profiles are loaded. 5 profiles are in enforce mode. /usr/bin/lxc-start lxc-container-default lxc-container-default-cgns lxc-container-default-with-mounting lxc-container-default-with-nesting 0 profiles are in complain mode. 0 processes have profiles defined. 0 processes are in enforce mode. 0 processes are in complain mode. 0 processes are unconfined but have a profile defined. # sestatus SELinux status: disabled As for the crash issue I was seeing for #2, so far I have not been able to replicate it with the patch. :) Regarding my OS, my "NAS" box is running Debian 9.2 with it's default distro kernel (currently 4.9.51-1), and my "Compute" nodes are on Proxmox, which is based on Debian 9.1 and it's kernel is based on ubuntu-artful and is version 4.13.4. Source is at https://git.proxmox.com/?p=pve-kernel.git;a=summary. This is the kernel I have tested the patch on, and have been running with CONFIG_SECURITY_INFINIBAND disabled to resolve the issue.
