Just to be sure we're talking about the same thing,
the case I'm referring to is something like a file with
two extended attributes:
security.apparmor MacAndCheese
security.SMACK64 MacAndCheese
and an IMA rule that says
dont_measure obj_type=MacAndCheese
In this case the dont_measure will be applied to both.
On the other hand,
security.apparmor MacAndCheese
security.SMACK64 FranksAndBeans
would also apply the rule to both, which is not
what you want. Unfortunately, there is no way to
differentiate which LSM hit the rule.
So now I'm a little confused. The case where both LSMs
use the same label looks like it works right, where the
case where they're different doesn't.
I'm beginning to think that identifying which LSMs matched
a rule (it may be none, either or both) is the right solution.
I don't think that audit is as sensitive to this.

That would be a massive performance hit.
