Thomas Graf	d387f6ad10	[NETLINK]: Add notification message sending interface ... Adds nlmsg_notify() implementing proper notification logic. The message is multicasted to all listeners in the group. The applications the requests orignates from can request a unicast back report in which case said socket will be excluded from the multicast to avoid duplicated notifications. nlmsg_multicast() is extended to take allocation flags to allow notification in atomic contexts.

Paul Moore	96cb8e3313	[NetLabel]: CIPSOv4 and Unlabeled packet integration ... Add CIPSO/IPv4 and unlabeled packet management to the NetLabel subsystem. The CIPSO/IPv4 changes allow the configuration of CIPSO/IPv4 within the overall NetLabel framework. The unlabeled packet changes allows NetLabel to pass unlabeled packets without error.

Paul Moore	d15c345fe3	[NetLabel]: core NetLabel subsystem ... Add a new kernel subsystem, NetLabel, to provide explicit packet labeling services (CIPSO, RIPSO, etc.) to LSM developers. NetLabel is designed to work in conjunction with a LSM to intercept and decode security labels on incoming network packets as well as ensure that outgoing network packets are labeled according to the security mechanism employed by the LSM. The NetLabel subsystem is configured through a Generic NETLINK interface described in the header files included in this patch. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul.moore@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
