, isn't it? Unlike Yama, adding whiteegret_add_hooks() to security_init() is not useful, for security_init() is called too early to create securityfs entries for WhiteEgret. Current version uses security= parameter as a switch for enabling/disabling WhiteEgret, doesn't it? If WhiteEgret does not use security= as a switch, is some other switch (e.g. __setup()) expected? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-security-module" in the body of a message to majordomo at vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
