Message-ID: <Xine.LNX.4.64.0710100920410.14862@us.intercode.com.au>

Subject: [PATCH 3/6] SELinux: Improve read/write performance
From: Yuichi Nakamura <ynakam@...achisoft.jp>
It reduces the selinux overhead on read/write by only revalidating
permissions in selinux_file_permission if the task or inode labels have
changed or the policy has changed since the open-time check. A new LSM
hook, security_dentry_open, is added to capture the necessary state at open
time to allow this optimization.
