Hi, OWLSM needs a few more changes before it is really ready to be submitted: - Copyright - We need to add Solar Designer's copy right to owlsm.h and he asked if we would rewrite the description to be the following /* * This is part of the functionality of the Linux kernel patches from * the Openwall Project that has been ported to LSM framework. Being a * derived work, it is released and maintained independently from the * Openwall Project. It has little relation to Openwall GNU/*/Linux or * Owl which includes an entire security-enhanced userland and thus is * a more fundamental project than the kernel patches or LSM module. * * More information regarding the Openwall Project and Owl can be found * at http://www.openwall.com and http://www.openwall.com/Owl/ * * Copyright (c) 1997-xxxx by Solar Designer <solarat_private> * Copyright (c) aaaa-bbbb by Chris Wright <chrisat_private> * ...and so on... */ He also mentioned that the fd 0-2 code was originally by Pavel Kankovsky and that we might add his copyright but we should probably ask him. - Freshen the code: Solar Designer has made a few bug fixes to the latest Openwall kernel patch which are not reflected in OWLSM. - Replace the comparison to uid 0 or at least think about whether it is really desirable I know I should be submitting a patch rather than just talking about these things. When I get a chance, I will, but I won't be able to in the forseeable future and now at least you know. :-) Emily -- Emily Ratliff IBM Linux Technology Center, Security _______________________________________________ linux-security-module mailing list linux-security-moduleat_private http://mail.wirex.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-security-module
