* Security hooks for program execution operations.
*
- * @bprm_set_creds:
- * Save security information in the bprm->security field, typically based
- * on information about the bprm->file, for later use by the apply_creds
- * hook. This hook may also optionally check permissions (e.g. for
- * transitions between security domains).
- * This hook may be called multiple times during a single execve, e.g. for
- * interpreters. The hook can tell whether it has already been called by
- * checking to see if @bprm->security is non-NULL. If so, then the hook
- * may decide either to retain the security information saved earlier or
- * to replace it. The hook must set @bprm->secureexec to 1 if a "secure
- * exec" has happened as a result of this hook call. The flag is used to
- * indicate the need for a sanitized execution environment, and is also
- * passed in the ELF auxiliary table on the initial stack to indicate
- * whether libc should enable secure mode.
+ * @bprm_creds_for_exec:
+ * If the setup in prepare_exec_creds did not setup @bprm->cred->security
+ * properly for executing @bprm->file, update the LSM's portion of
+ * @bprm->cred->security to be what commit_creds needs to install for the
+ * new program. This hook may also optionally check permissions
+ * (e.g. for transitions between security domains).
+ * The hook must set @bprm->secureexec to 1 if AT_SECURE should be set to
+ * request libc enable secure mode.
+ * @bprm contains the linux_binprm structure.
+ * Return 0 if the hook is successful and permission is granted.
+ * @bprm_creds_from_file:
+ * If @file is setpcap, suid, sgid or otherwise marked to change
+ * privilege upon exec, update @bprm->cred to reflect that change.
+ * This is called after finding the binary that will be executed.
+ * without an interpreter. This ensures that the credentials will not
+ * be derived from a script that the binary will need to reopen, which
+ * when reopend may end up being a completely different file. This
+ * hook may also optionally check permissions (e.g. for transitions
+ * between security domains).
+ * The hook must set @bprm->secureexec to 1 if AT_SECURE should be set to

+ * The hook must add to @bprm->per_clear any personality flags that
+ * should be cleared from current->personality.
* @bprm contains the linux_binprm structure.
* Return 0 if the hook is successful and permission is granted.
* @bprm_check_security:
* This hook mediates the point when a search for a binary handler will
- * begin. It allows a check the @bprm->security value which is set in the
- * preceding set_creds call. The primary difference from set_creds is
- * that the argv list and envp list are reliably available in @bprm. This
- * hook may be called multiple times during a single execve; and in each
- * pass set_creds is called first.

* @bprm_committing_creds:
* Prepare to install the new security attributes of a process being

- * the bprm_set_creds hook. @bprm points to the linux_binprm structure.
