The Linux Security Modules project provides a lightweight, general purpose
framework for access control. The LSM interface enables developing
security policies as loadable kernel modules. See http://lsm.immunix.org
for more information.

2.5.66-lsm1 patch released. This is a rebase up to 2.5.66 as well as
some interface and module updates. Out of tree projects will want to
resync with interface changes.

Full lsm-2.5 patch (LSM + all modules) is available at:
http://lsm.immunix.org/patches/2.5/2.5.66/patch-2.5.66-lsm1.gz
