I think she means the latest LSM patch, not pending upstream changes for SELinux. The LSM BitKeeper tree has various additional hooks, some rejected for 2.5/6 and some not yet submitted due to a lack of a specific user, and various security modules that have not yet been submitted upstream. It might be a good idea to clone a new LSM BitKeeper tree from mainline and only commit the additional security modules and any additional hooks on which they specifically rely. That should ease updating the LSM tree from mainline, and should ease generating diffs from the LSM tree to go to mainline. The old LSM BitKeeper tree could still be kept around for historical purposes. Since SELinux is in the mainline kernel, we have just been working directly off of it for some time, although we naturally post proposed changes to LSM to the LSM list as well. -- Stephen Smalley <sds@private> National Security Agency
