17 * The selinux_status_page shall be exposed to userspace applications
18 * using mmap interface on /selinux/status.
19 * It enables to notify applications a few events that will cause reset
20 * of userspace access vector without context switching.
22 * The selinux_kernel_status structure on the head of status page is
23 * protected from concurrent accesses using seqlock logic, so userspace
24 * application should reference the status page according to the seqlock
27 * Typically, application checks status->sequence at the head of access
28 * control routine. If it is odd-number, kernel is updating the status,
29 * so please wait for a moment. If it is changed from the last sequence
30 * number, it means something happen, so application will reset userspace
32 * In most cases, application shall confirm the kernel status is not
33 * changed without any system call invocations.
37 * selinux_kernel_status_page
39 * It returns a reference to selinux_status_page. If the status page is
40 * not allocated yet, it also tries to allocate it at the first time.
