Jeez, what argv[0] convention are you both talking about? argv[0] is not guaranteed to have any association with the name of the executable. Feel free to have any discussion about argv[0] you want, but *please* keep it away from AppArmor, which really has nothing to do with it. It would be nice if you could stop calling argv[0] checks ``name-based access control'': from the point of view of the kernel no access control is involved, and even application-level argv[0] based access control makes no sense whatsoever.
