    [NetLabel]: core NetLabel subsystem · d15c345f

    Add a new kernel subsystem, NetLabel, to provide explicit packet
    labeling services (CIPSO, RIPSO, etc.) to LSM developers.  NetLabel is
    designed to work in conjunction with a LSM to intercept and decode
    security labels on incoming network packets as well as ensure that
    outgoing network packets are labeled according to the security
    mechanism employed by the LSM.  The NetLabel subsystem is configured
    through a Generic NETLINK interface described in the header files
    included in this patch.
