There wasn't a single cry when Chris asked for anyone who'd > care about dummy being removed, so I do plan on switching that. I was a bit careful: My patch did switch the default, but LSMs that don't fill in all security_ops would still fall back to dummy, just to make sure there is no possibly unintended change in behaviour. Getting rid of dummy entirely would be better, I agree, but someone needs to review that this won't break anything. So how should we proceed? You want to do the dummy removal first, then have stacker merged and then what remains of my patches? Or should I start ... ? Regards, -- Kurt Garloff, Director SUSE Labs, Novell Inc.
