Date: Wed, 21 Aug 2019 18:00:09 -0400 [thread overview] Message-ID: <CAHC9VhSz1_KA1tCJtNjwK26BOkGhKGbPT7v1O82mWPduvWwd4A@mail.gmail.com> (raw) Hello netdev, I was just made aware of the skb extension work, and it looks very appealing from a LSM perspective. As some of you probably remember, we (the LSM folks) have wanted a proper security blob in the skb for quite some time, but netdev has been resistant to this idea thus far. If I were to propose a patchset to add a SKB_EXT_SECURITY skb extension (a single extension ID to be shared among the different LSMs), would that be something that netdev would consider merging, or is there still a philosophical objection to things like this? -- paul moore www.paul-moore.com
