Subject: [PATCH security-next v5 18/30] LSM: Introduce "lsm=" for boottime LSM selection
Date:   Wed, 10 Oct 2018 17:18:34 -0700
Message-Id: <20181011001846.30964-19-keescook@chromium.org>
In-Reply-To: <20181011001846.30964-1-keescook@chromium.org>
References: <20181011001846.30964-1-keescook@chromium.org>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

Provide a way to explicitly choose LSM initialization order via the new
"lsm=" comma-separated list of LSMs.
