At present the only two modules that provide extended attributes are SELinux and Smack. The LSM infrastructure requires more change, including change to security_inode_init_security(), before those modules can be used together. > In addition, using the call_int_hook() macro causes some issues.

As there is no case where there will be multiple providers of hooks for inode_init_security this isn't an issue. > From EVM side, the first operation to be done is to change the definition > of evm_inode_init_security() to be compatible with the security hook > definition.

This patch set changes the security > hook definition by adding the full array of xattr as a parameter. Why do you want to call evm_inode_init_security() as a regular LSM hook? Except for the names evm_inode_init_security() and selinux_inode_init_security() have nothing in common. They do very different things and require different data, as comes out in the patches. There are evm functions that could be implemented as LSM hooks. I don't think this is one of them.
