Each process is equipped with access 19 to five standard keyrings: UID-specific, GID-specific, session, 20 process and thread. 21 22 If you are unsure as to whether this is required, answer N. 23 24config KEYS_DEBUG_PROC_KEYS 25 bool "Enable the /proc/keys file by which keys may be viewed" 26 depends on KEYS 27 help 28 This option turns on support for the /proc/keys file - through which 29 can be listed all the keys on the system that are viewable by the 30 reading process. 31 32 The only keys included in the list are those that grant View 33 permission to the reading process whether or not it possesses them. 34 Note that LSM security checks are still performed, and may further 35 filter out keys that the current process is not authorised to view. 36 37 Only key attributes are listed here; key payloads are not included in 38 the resulting table. 39 40 If you are unsure as to whether this is required, answer N. 41 42config SECURITY 43 bool "Enable different security models" 44 depends on SYSFS 45 help 46 This allows you to choose different security modules to be 47 configured into your kernel. 48 49 If this option is not selected, the default Linux security 50 model will be used. 51 52 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N. 53 54config SECURITY_NETWORK 55 bool "Socket and Networking Security Hooks" 56 depends on SECURITY 57 help 58 This enables the socket and networking security hooks. 59 If enabled, a security module can use these hooks to 60 implement socket and networking access controls. 61 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N. 62 63config SECURITY_NETWORK_XFRM 64 bool "XFRM (IPSec) Networking Security Hooks" 65 depends on XFRM && SECURITY_NETWORK 66 help 67 This enables the XFRM (IPSec) networking security hooks. 68 If enabled, a security module can use these hooks to 69 implement per-packet access controls based on labels 70 derived from IPSec policy. Non-IPSec communications are 71 designated as unlabelled, and only sockets authorized 72 to communicate unlabelled data can send without using 73 IPSec. 74 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N. 75 76config SECURITY_CAPABILITIES 77 tristate "Default Linux Capabilities" 78 depends on SECURITY 79 help 80 This enables the "default" Linux capabilities functionality. 81 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer Y. 82 83config SECURITY_ROOTPLUG 84 tristate "Root Plug Support" 85 depends on USB && SECURITY 86 help 87 This is a sample LSM module that should only be used as such. 88 It prevents any programs running with egid == 0 if a specific 89 USB device is not present in the system. 90 91 See <http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=6279> for 92 more information about this module. 93 94 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N. 95 96source security/selinux/Kconfig 97 98endmenu 99 100
