Infiniband applications access HW from user-space -- traffic is generated
directly by HW, bypassing the kernel. Consequently, Infiniband Partitions,
which are associated directly with HW transport endpoints, are a natural
choice for enforcing granular mandatory access control for Infiniband. QPs may
only send or receives packets tagged with the corresponding partition key
(PKey). The PKey is not a cryptographic key; it's a 16 bit number identifying
the partition ...
Hi Dan,

I haven't heard anything from you in a while, where do things stand
with this effort?  Unless I missed them, I believe we are still
waiting on the userspace, SELinux reference policy, and
selinux-testsuite patches.
Hi Paul,

    I got distracted for a while.  I've just rebased the kernel and userspace.  I'll do some testing and submit the userspace code in the next couple days.  I still have to write the selinux-testsuite tests, I'll work on those concurrently with the userspace review cycle.
Great, thanks for the update.  We'll look forward to the patches.
