Kernel authorization (kauth) progress
Elad Efrat has continued his work on bringing kauth to the NetBSD
kernel. Currently the code is on a branch and needs testing before the
pending merge into NetBSD-current. When kauth is in the kernel, it will
be used as a base to replace the existing implementation of secure
levels, and can also be used to implement facilities like capabilities
and ACLs later on.
See
Elad's mail to tech-security@
for a lot more details!
