SELinux: define permissions for DCB netlink messages encrypted-keys: style and other cleanup encrypted-keys: verify datablob size before converting to binary trusted-keys: kzalloc and other cleanup trusted-keys: additional TSS return code and other error handling syslog: check cap_syslog when dmesg_restrict Smack: Transmute labels on specified directories selinux: cache sidtab_context_to_sid results SELinux: do not compute transition labels on mountpoint labeled filesystems This patch adds a new security attribute to Smack called SMACK64EXEC. It defines label that is used while task is running. SELinux: merge policydb_index_classes and policydb_index_others selinux: convert part of the sym_val_to_name array to use flex_array selinux: convert type_val_to_struct to flex_array flex_array: fix flex_array_put_ptr macro to be valid C SELinux: do not set automatic i_ino in selinuxfs selinux: rework security_netlbl_secattr_to_sid SELinux: standardize return code handling in selinuxfs.c SELinux: standardize return code handling in selinuxfs.c SELinux: standardize return code handling in policydb.c ...
