Pull apparmor updates from John Johansen:
"This has one major feature, it pulls in a cleaned up version of
af_unix mediation that Ubuntu has been carrying for years. It is
placed behind a new abi to ensure that it does cause policy
regressions. With pulling in the af_unix mediation there have been
cleanups and some refactoring of network socket mediation. This
accounts for the majority of the changes in the diff.
In addition there are a few improvements providing minor code
optimizations. several code cleanups, and bug fixes.
Features:
- improve debug printing
- carry mediation check on label (optimization)
- improve ability for compiler to optimize
__begin_current_label_crit_section
- transition for a linked list of rulesets to a vector of rulesets
- don't hardcode profile signal, allow it to be set by policy
- ability to mediate caps via the state machine instead of lut
- Add Ubuntu af_unix mediation, put it behind new v9 abi
Cleanups:
- fix typos and spelling errors
- cleanup kernel doc and code inconsistencies
- remove redundant checks/code
- remove unused variables
- Use str_yes_no() helper function
- mark tables static where appropriate
- make all generated string array headers const char *const
- refactor to doc semantics of file_perm checks
- replace macro calls to network/socket fns with explicit calls
- refactor/cleanup socket mediation code preparing for finer grained
mediation of different network families
- several updates to kernel doc comments
Bug fixes:
- fix incorrect profile->signal range check
- idmap mount fixes
- policy unpack unaligned access fixes
- kfree_sensitive() where appropriate
- fix oops when freeing policy
- fix conflicting attachment resolution
- fix exec table look-ups when stacking isn't first
- fix exec auditing
- mitigate userspace generating overly large xtables"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
