Currently symlinks on kernel filesystems, like sysfs, are labeled on creation with the parent filesystem root sid. Allow symlinks to inherit the parent directory context, so fine-grained kernfs labeling can be applied to symlinks too and checking contexts doesn't complain about them. For backward-compatibility this behavior is contained in a new policy capability: genfs_seclabel_symlinks Signed-off-by: Christian Göttsche <cgzones@googlemail.com> Acked-by: Stephen Smalley <sds@tycho.nsa.gov> Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul@paul-moore.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
