From 344fa64ef8f6740e99b32ab788b6e3742d7284b3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Howells Date: Wed, 12 Feb 2020 13:58:35 +0000 Subject: security: Add a hook for the point of notification insertion Add a security hook that allows an LSM to rule on whether a notification message is allowed to be inserted into a particular watch queue. The hook is given the following information: (1) The credentials of the triggerer (which may be init_cred for a system notification, eg. a hardware error). (2) The credentials of the whoever set the watch. (3) The notification message.
