SELinux on-disk labels can be up to 64KB in size (XATTR_SIZE_MAX), and I'd like to ensure that we don't end up with an unnecessary disk vs. network label size incompatibility. While it seems unlikely that SELinux (and other forms of MAC) security labels would currently exceed 4K, we don't know how SELinux might be extended in the future, and should avoid limiting label flexibility beyond existing constraints. - James -- James Morris <jmorris@xxxxxxxxx> -- This message was distributed to subscribers of the selinux mailing list.
