    The Linux Security Modules project provides a lightweight, general
    purpose framework for access control.  The LSM interface enables
    security policies to be developed as loadable kernel modules.
    See http://lsm.immunix.org for more information.
    
    2.4.20 lsm patch released.  This is includes bugfixes and merging up to
    the current stable 2.4 Linux tree, as well as interface changes.  There
    is one known bug with nfsd's filp allocation in nfsd_open.
