    Composing security policies is difficult -- it is still good research
    material. The LSM interface allows modules to stack, if they work
    together and were programmed with the intention of stacking. This
    ensures that the module authors were prepared to think about composition
    issues and helps to keep the interface clean and simple.

    There is a DocBook file in the LSM kernel source tree,
    Documentation/DocBook/lsm.tmpl.  I think it can be built by running
    "make psdocs" from the top level of your kernel source tree -- or, if
    you don't mind SGML markup, you can read it directly. :)
    
    Of course, if that file doesn't help you, you can read mail list
    archives here: http://mail.wirex.com/pipermail/linux-security-module/
    
    Cheers :)
