This patch changes the security module interface! There should be no change in the actual security semantics enforced by dummy, capability, nor SELinux (with one exception, clearly marked in sys_syslog). zw Index: linux-2.6/include/linux/klog.h =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/include/linux/klog.h 2006-11-10 13:48:52.000000000 -0800 +++ linux-2.6/include/linux/klog.h 2006-11-10 14:08:57.000000000 -0800 @@ -23,4 +23,16 @@ KLOG_GET_SIZE = 10 /* return size of log buffer */ };
