15 config SECURITY_SMACK_BRINGUP
16 bool "Reporting on access granted by Smack rules"
17 depends on SECURITY_SMACK
20 Enable the bring-up ("b") access mode in Smack rules.
21 When access is granted by a rule with the "b" mode a
22 message about the access requested is generated. The
23 intention is that a process can be granted a wide set
24 of access initially with the bringup mode set on the
25 rules. The developer can use the information to
26 identify which rules are necessary and what accesses
27 may be inappropriate. The developer can reduce the
28 access rule set once the behavior is well understood.
29 This is a superior mechanism to the oft abused
30 "permissive" mode of other systems.

33 config SECURITY_SMACK_NETFILTER
34 bool "Packet marking using secmarks for netfilter"
35 depends on SECURITY_SMACK
36 depends on NETWORK_SECMARK

42 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
44 config SECURITY_SMACK_APPEND_SIGNALS
45 bool "Treat delivering signals as an append operation"
46 depends on SECURITY_SMACK
49 Sending a signal has been treated as a write operation to the
50 receiving process. If this option is selected, the delivery
51 will be an append operation instead. This makes it possible
52 to differentiate between delivering a network packet and
53 delivering a signal in the Smack rules.
