Currently the caps encoding is very limited and can't be used with conditionals. Allow capabilities to be mediated by the state machine. This will allow us to add conditionals to capabilities that aren't possible with the current encoding. This patch only adds support for using the state machine and retains the old encoding lookup as part of the runtime mediation code to support older policy abis. A follow on patch will move backwards compatibility to a mapping function done at policy load time. Signed-off-by: John Johansen <john.johansen@canonical.com>
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.
