My current thinking is that namespacing is best left to the individual LSMs, as it is unlikely we will all want to solve it the same way. With SELinux we already have some basic support for what Eric describes via bounded domains, but that alone isn't likely to solve SELinux inside containers in a sense that most would expect; for that you will need what Stephen already described. -- paul moore www.paul-moore.com _______________________________________________ Selinux mailing list Selinux@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe, send email to Selinux-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.
