As long as the security labels are themselves not being exported to the kernel to be used e.g. for display or transport, then I agree, and we should avoid passing them around outside the LSM entirely if possible. Usually, they're attached to a significant kernel object, which you typically pass around as part of the interface anyway. David, I've looked at the code and can't see that you need to access the label itself outside the LSM. Could you instead simply pass the inode pointer around? (I know it's not always possible, but much preferred). - James -- James Morris <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
