I really don't like the idea of forcing the use of the /proc filesystem just to enable the use of LSM. This could affect the uptake of LSM in the embedded space. And using /proc is going to be slower than a system call, which maybe okay for Janus, could for other policies, SELinux ? richard. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Richard Offer Technical Lead, Trust Technology, SGI "Specialization is for insects" _______________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________ linux-security-module mailing list linux-security-moduleat_private http://mail.wirex.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-security-module
