Please read again what I wrote above. Where did I state that I need
"everything in /proc"? I am merely suggesting a fix for what should have
been released in the first place by correcting the value of secmark to
show the proper context instead of a number which means absolutely
nothing to anyone.

I find the above rather condescending - what is that supposed to mean? I
think that you need a bit of help with anger management.

Again, read what I wrote above - I do not ask for an addition, just a
simple correction of something which should have been done properly in
the first place. How is that "hypocritical"?
