LSM: Introduce inode_getsecid and ipc_getsecid hooks
Introduce inode_getsecid(inode, secid) and ipc_getsecid(ipcp, secid) LSM hooks. These hooks will be used instead of similar exported SELinux interfaces. Let {inode,ipc,task}_getsecid hooks set the secid to 0 by default if CONFIG_SECURITY is not defined or if the hook is set to NULL (dummy). This is done to notify the caller that no valid secid exists. Signed-off-by: Casey Schaufler <casey@schaufler-ca.com> Signed-off-by: Ahmed S. Darwish <darwish.07@gmail.com> Acked-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org> Reviewed-by: Paul Moore <paul.moore@hp.com>
