Subject: [PATCH 2/2] security: introduce kernel_module_from_file hook
Date: Fri,  7 Sep 2012 11:38:14 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1347043094-11120-2-git-send-email-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1347043094-11120-1-git-send-email-keescook@chromium.org>

Now that kernel module origins can be reasoned about, provide a hook to
the LSMs to make policy decisions about the module file.
