Subject: [PATCH v6 1/3] LSM: Add /sys/kernel/security/lsm

I got tired of having to find indirect ways to
determine what security modules are active on a system.
I have added /sys/kernel/security/lsm, which contains a
comma separated list of the active security modules. No
more groping around in /proc/filesystems, which won't
help if the module doesn't support its own filesystem.

+A list of the active security modules can be found by reading
+/sys/kernel/security/lsm. This is a comma separated list, and
+will always include the capability module. The list reflects the
+order in which checks are made. The capability module will always
+be first, followed by any "minor" modules (e.g. Yama) and then
