Re: [PATCH v2 6/7] Apparmor: hooks for secctx_to_lsmprop and update_lsmprop

From: John Johansen

Date: Thu Sep 03 2026 - 05:49:09 EST



the code itself looks right
same nit on update_lsmprop as previous two patches.

I know you are working within the insane constraints of the secid, but it really
hurts that apparmor has a local xarray for secids, and now the LSM infra has
one too. I know its a problem to be solved later, I am just griping about the
current state of affairs.
