It wasn't strictly necessary to have full symbol tables per avrule_block in order to track declaration and requiring symbols but they were used because the hash table implementation and all supporting functions were already present in the library. In retrospect this could be a source of excess memory consumption and module size on disk but it was simply easier and faster to implement at the time. -- This message was distributed to subscribers of the selinux mailing list.
