Isn't that the purpose of the inode_init_security hook?
After all LSMs provide one or multiple xattrs, xattrs are going to be
written to the disk with the initxattr() callback of filesystems.
There is a small mistake above (XATTR_SMACK_TRANSMUTE instead
of XATTR_NAME_SMACKTRANSMUTE, as we are providing just the suffix).
After fixing that, Smack tests succeed:
95 Passed, 0 Failed, 100% Success rate
There was a test failing in dir-transmute.sh, before I fixed the xattr
name.
Thanks
