Subject: [PATCH 6/6] smack: Add a new '-CIPSO' option to the network address
label configuration
From: Etienne Basset <etienne.basset@...ericable.fr>
This patch adds a new special option '-CIPSO' to the Smack subsystem. When used
in the netlabel list, it means "use CIPSO networking". A use case is when your
local network speaks CIPSO and you want also to connect to the unlabeled
Internet. This patch also add some documentation describing that. The patch
also corrects an oops when setting a '' SMACK64 xattr to a file.

+Smack Netlabel Exceptions
+
+You will often find that your labeled application has to talk to the outside,
+unlabeled world. To do this there's a special file /smack/netlabel where you can
+add some exceptions in the form of :
+@IP1 LABEL1 or
+@.../MASK LABEL2
+
+It means that your application will have unlabeled access to @IP1 if it has
+write access on LABEL1, and access to the subnet @IP2/MASK if it has write
+access on LABEL2.
+
+Entries in the /smack/netlabel file are matched by longest mask first, like in
+classless IPv4 routing.
+
+A special label '@' and an option '-CIPSO' can be used there :
+@ means Internet, any application with any label has access to it
+-CIPSO means standard CIPSO networking
+
+If you don't know what CIPSO is and don't plan to use it, you can just do :
+echo 127.0.0.1 -CIPSO > /smack/netlabel
+echo 0.0.0.0/0 @ > /smack/netlabel
+
+If you use CIPSO on your 192.168.0.0/16 local network and need also unlabeled
+Internet access, you can have :
+echo 127.0.0.1 -CIPSO > /smack/netlabel
+echo 192.168.0.0/16 -CIPSO > /smack/netlabel
+echo 0.0.0.0/0 @ > /smack/netlabel
