Subject: Why the kernel remove some LSM related functions?
Date: Fri, 27 Nov 2009 21:03:17 +0900 [thread overview]

Recent kernel of linux has removed the exported symbol of register_security() for Linux Security Module; so when I want to develop my own security module on 2.6.28, I have to modify the kernel to export the symbol and recompile the kernel source.
Besides, the kernel has completely removed the functions of mod_reg_security() and mod_unreg_security(), which makes me unable to stack the security module. The only approach is to disable the active security module like SELinux and register mine.
Here, I want to know why the kernel did so.
Thank you!
