Linux Security Module Development

=================================
|
|
|
|
Based on https://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/26/215,
|
|
a new LSM is accepted into the kernel when its intent (a description of
|
|
what it tries to protect against and in what cases one would expect to
|
|
use it) has been appropriately documented in ``Documentation/security/LSM.rst``.
|
|
This allows an LSM's code to be easily compared to its goals, and so
|
|
that end users and distros can make a more informed decision about which
|
|
LSMs suit their requirements.
|
|
|
|
For extensive documentation on the available LSM hook interfaces, please
|
|
see ``include/linux/lsm_hooks.h``.
