This selects the Simplified Mandatory Access Control Kernel.
|

|
|
|
Smack is useful for sensitivity, integrity, and a variety
|
|
|
|
|
of other mandatory security schemes.

Enable the bring-up ("b") access mode in Smack rules.
|
|
|
|
|
When access is granted by a rule with the "b" mode a
|
|
|
|
|
message about the access requested is generated. The
|
|
|
|
|
intention is that a process can be granted a wide set
|
|
|
|
|
of access initially with the bringup mode set on the
|
|
|
|
|
rules. The developer can use the information to
|
|
|
|
|
identify which rules are necessary and what accesses
|
|
|
|
|
may be inappropriate. The developer can reduce the
|
|
|
|
|
access rule set once the behavior is well understood.
|
|
|
|
|
This is a superior mechanism to the oft abused
|
|
|
|
|
"permissive" mode of other systems.
