    Smack: onlycap limits on CAP_MAC_ADMIN · 1880eff7
    Casey Schaufler authored
    Smack is integrated with the POSIX capabilities scheme,
    using the capabilities CAP_MAC_OVERRIDE and CAP_MAC_ADMIN to
    determine if a process is allowed to ignore Smack checks or
    change Smack related data respectively. Smack provides an
    additional restriction that if an onlycap value is set
    by writing to /smack/onlycap only tasks with that Smack
    label are allowed to use CAP_MAC_OVERRIDE.
    
    This change adds CAP_MAC_ADMIN as a capability that is affected
    by the onlycap mechanism.
