[patch] selinux: simplify ioctl checking

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Simplify and improve the robustness of the SELinux ioctl checking by 
using the "access mode" bits of the ioctl command to determine the 
permission check rather than dealing with individual command values.
This removes any knowledge of specific ioctl commands from SELinux
and follows the same guidance we gave to Smack earlier.
