The model.c file is responsible for managing the security state
information for a security modeling namespace.  Important to note
is that the map.c file is responsible for generating the
coefficients and hence the implementation of the model.  The
model.c file maintains the state information and makes the
decision with respect to whether or not a presented event is
consistent with the model being enforced.

By default the TMA runs in free modeling mode where all security
coefficients and there associated descriptions are considered
valid and retained as the security execution trajectory for the
namespace.

The model implementation can be 'sealed' through the TSEM control
plane, a condition that causes any state points not registered in
the model to be considered a 'forensics' event.  The description
of such an event is added to the forensics execution trajectory
for the model.  A forensics event does not result in permission
to the event to be denied unless the model is placed in
'enforcing' mode.

The TMA implementation also supports the definition of 'base'
point that is binary value equal in length to the cryptographic
hash function being used by the security modeling namespace.
This base point is used to linear extend each security state
coefficient before it is added to the model.  This allows a
relying part to confirm the 'freshnes' of the functional state of
the model.

The modeling implementation supports two different functional
values for the model being implemented.  The classic linear
extension sum of all the security state points and a value
referred to as the 'state' of the security model.

The classic linear extension sum is similar to what would be
implemented by a Platform Configuration Register in a Trusted
Platform Module.  It can be used verify the order in which
security event occurred but is also fragile with respect to
process scheduling dependencies, particularly on SMP platforms.

The 'state' value is designed to make the measurement value
invariant to these scheduling induced variations.  The state
value is computed by sorting the security event state points in
the model in big-endian (natural hash byte order) format and then
computing the extension sum over this sorted vector of points.

This value verifies that the model has only existed in a
prescribed set of security states.

+
+ * This file is responsible for maintaining the security model state
+ * information for the internal trusted modeling agent implementation.
+ *
+ * The state information consists of security event descriptions that
+ * have been experienced by a security modeling namespace and the
+ * security state coefficients that they map into.  Only unique
+ * descriptions and their coefficients are maintained for maintained
+ * for each security modeling namespace.
+ *
+ * An important point to note is that the routines in this file do not
+ * implement a security model.  The mapping of security event
+ * descriptions into coefficients, in the map.c file, is the
+ * functionality that actually implements the model.  Future
+ * implementations of TSEM are anticipated to provide alternate models
+ * by providing alternative implementations of the mapping routines.
+ *
+ * The generative functions used to create the security state
+ * coefficients managed by this file are fully described in the
+ * primary TSEM documentation file.
+ *
+ * As with the event.c and export.c files this file must handle events
+ * that run in both atomic and non-atomic context.  For processes that
+ * run in non-atomic context the structures that represent a security
+ * state coefficient are provided by the kmem_cache structure
+ * implement in this file.
+ *
+ * In order to support processes that are running in atomic context a
+ * magazine of structure is maintained as well.  Allocations from this
+ * magazine are replaced with a function that runs in the context of
+ * an asynchronous workqueue.
