Re: Selinux lsm and Free Swan

I just looked briefly at the FreeSWAN KLIPS code, and I think the problem is being caused by the call to sock_queue_rcv_skb by the PF_KEY socket code. So the patch to tcp_ipv4.c is probably unnecessary. Just try the patch to hooks.c and see if it works for you. In that case, skipping the network access control checks in selinux_sock_rcv_skb is ok, because it is a kernel-daemon communication.
