Whereas Smack was overloading a previously allocated capability it is now using a pair, one for overriding access control checks and the other for changes to the MAC configuration. The two capabilities allocated should be obvious in their intent. The comments in capability.h are intended to make it clear that there is no intention that implementations of MAC LSM modules be any more constrained by the presence of these capabilities than an implementation of DAC LSM modules are by the analogous DAC capabilities. Signed-off-by: Casey Schaufler --- The companion patch for libcap-2.02 is provided as an attachment. The attachment is not a kernel patch, although it would be easy to mistake it for one. Introduces CAP_FS_MASK_B1 and uses it as appropriate. I think that I found all the places it needs to be used, but don't hesitate to let me know if I missed something.
