From ca10b9e9a8ca7342ee07065289cbe74ac128c169 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Mon, 8 Apr 2013 17:58:11 +0000 Subject: selinux: add a skb_owned_by() hook Commit 90ba9b1986b5ac (tcp: tcp_make_synack() can use alloc_skb()) broke certain SELinux/NetLabel configurations by no longer correctly assigning the sock to the outgoing SYNACK packet. Cost of atomic operations on the LISTEN socket is quite big, and we would like it to happen only if really needed. This patch introduces a new security_ops->skb_owned_by() method, that is a void operation unless selinux is active.
