Subject: [PATCH v4 01/34] lsm: split the notifier code out into lsm_notifier.c
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2025 18:03:28 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250916220355.252592-37-paul@paul-moore.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250916220355.252592-36-paul@paul-moore.com>
In an effort to decompose security/security.c somewhat to make it less
twisted and unwieldy, pull out the LSM notifier code into a new file
as it is fairly well self-contained.
No code changes.
