NAME¶
register_security - registers a security framework with the kernelSYNOPSIS¶
int
register_security(struct security_operations * ops);
ARGUMENTS¶
opsa pointer to the struct security_options that
is to be registered
DESCRIPTION¶
This function allows a security module to register itself with the kernel security subsystem. Some rudimentary checking is done on the ops value passed to this function. You'll need to check first if your LSM is allowed to register its ops by calling security_module_enable( ops). If there is already a security module registered with the kernel, an error will be returned. Otherwise 0 is returned on success.COPYRIGHT¶
