+The following */proc/self/attr/* filesystem files are used by the kernel
+services and via libselinux (for userspace) to manage setting and reading of
+security contexts within the LSM defined data structures:
+
+*current*
+
+- Contains the current process security context.

+
+*sockcreate*
+
+- Used to set the security context of a newly created socket.
+
+### Core LSM Source Files
+
+The core kernel LSM source files  that form the LSM are as follows:
+
+*include/linux/lsm_hooks.h*
+
+- Contains comments on each of the LSM hooks use and requirements, also
+  defines the main security structures for module stacking.

+
+*security_bprm_committing_creds->selinux_bprm_committing_creds*
+
+- Prepare to install the new security attributes of the process being transformed
+  by an *execve* operation. SELinux uses this hook to close any unauthorised

 ### Fork System Call Walk-thorough
 
-This section walks through the the ***fork**(2)* system call shown in
-[**Figure 7**](domain_object_transitions.md#domain-transition) starting at the
-kernel hooks that link to the SELinux services. The way the SELinux hooks are
-initialised into the LSM *security_ops* function table are also described.
-
-Using , the major steps to check whether the *unconfined_t* process has
-permission to use the fork permission are:
-
-1.  The *kernel/fork.c* has a hook that links it to the LSM function
-    *security_task_create()* that is called to check access
-    permissions.
-2.  Because the SELinux module has been initialised as the security
-    module, the *security_ops* table has been set to point to the
-    SELinux *selinux_task_create()* function in *hooks.c*.
-3.  The *selinux_task_create()* function check whether the task has
-    permission via the *current_has_perm(current, PROCESS__FORK)*
-    function.
-4.  This will result in a call to the AVC via the *avc_has_perm()*
-    function in *avc.c* that checks whether the permission has been
-    granted or not. First (via *avc_has_perm_noaudit()*) the cache is
-    checked for an entry. Assuming that there is no entry in the AVC,
-    then the *security_compute_av()* function in *services.c* is
-    called.
-5.  The *security_compute_av()* function will search the SID table for
-    source and target entries, and if found will then call the
-    *context_struct_compute_av()* function.
-
-The *context_struct_compute_av()* function carries out many checks to
-validate whether access is allowed. The steps are (assuming the access
-is valid):
--   Initialise the AV structure so that it is clear.
--   Check the object class and permissions are correct. It also checks
-    the status of the *allow_unknown* flag (see the
-    [**SELinux Filesystem**](#selinux-filesystem),
-    [*/etc/selinux/semanage.conf*](global_config_files.md#etcselinuxsemanage.conf)
-    and
-    [Reference Policy Build Options](reference_policy.md#the-reference-policy)
-    *build.conf* and *UNK_PERMS* sections.
--   Checks if there are any type enforcement rules (AVTAB_ALLOWED,
-    AVTAB_AUDITALLOW, AVTAB_AUDITDENY, AVTAB_XPERMS).
--   Check whether any conditional statements are involved via the
-    *cond_compute_av()* function in *conditional.c*.
--   Remove permissions that are defined in any *constraint* rule via the
-    *constraint_expr_eval()* function call (in *services.c*). This
-    function will also check any MLS constraints.
--   *context_struct_compute_av()* checks if a process transition is
-    being requested (it is not). If it were, then the *transition* and
-    *dyntransition* permissions are checked and whether the role is
-    changing.
--   Finally check whether there are any constraints applied via the

-7.  Once the result has been computed it is returned to the

-    function. In this case the ***fork**(2)* call is allowed.
-8.  **The End.**
+This section walks through the ***fork**(2)* system call shown in
+[**Figure 7: Domain Transition**](domain_object_transitions.md#domain-transition)
+starting at the kernel hooks that link to the SELinux services. The way the
+SELinux hooks are initialised into the LSM *security_ops* function table (or the
+*security_hook_list* in kernels supporting multiple LSMs) are also described.
+
+Using **Figure 10: Hooks for the** ***fork**(2)* **system call**,
+the major steps to check whether the *unconfined_t* process has permission
+to use the *fork* permission are:
+
+1. The *kernel/fork.c* has a hook that links it to the LSM function
+   *security_task_create()* that is called to check access permissions.
+2. Because the SELinux module has been initialised as the security
+   module, the *security_ops*/*security_hook_list* table has been set
+   to point to the SELinux *selinux_task_create()* function in *hooks.c*.
+3. The *selinux_task_create()* function check whether the task has
+   permission via the *current_has_perm(current, PROCESS\_\_FORK)* function.
+4. This will result in a call to the AVC via the *avc_has_perm()*
+   function in *avc.c* that checks whether the permission has been
+   granted or not. First (via *avc_has_perm_noaudit()*) the cache is
+   checked for an entry. Assuming that there is no entry in the AVC,
+   then the *security_compute_av()* function in *services.c* is called.
+5. The *security_compute_av()* function will search the SID table for
+   source and target entries, and if found will then call the
+   *context_struct_compute_av()* function.
+   The *context_struct_compute_av()* function carries out many checks to
+   validate whether access is allowed. The steps are (assuming the access
+   is valid):
+   - Initialise the AV structure so that it is clear.
+   - Check the object class and permissions are correct. It also checks
+     the status of the *allow_unknown* flag (see the
+     [**SELinux Filesystem**](#selinux-filesystem),
+     [***/etc/selinux/semanage.conf***](global_config_files.md#etcselinuxsemanage.conf)
+     and
+     [**Reference Policy Build Options**](reference_policy.md#the-reference-policy)
+     *build.conf* and *UNK_PERMS* sections.
+   - Checks if there are any type enforcement rules (*AVTAB_ALLOWED*,
+     *AVTAB_AUDITALLOW*, *AVTAB_AUDITDENY*, *AVTAB_XPERMS*).
+   - Check whether any conditional statements are involved via the
+     *cond_compute_av()* function in *conditional.c*.
+   - Remove permissions that are defined in any *constraint* rule via the
+     *constraint_expr_eval()* function call (in *services.c*). This
+     function will also check any MLS constraints.
+   - *context_struct_compute_av()* checks if a process transition is
+     being requested (it is not). If it were, then the *transition* and
+     *dyntransition* permissions are checked and whether the role is
+     changing.
+   - Finally check whether there are any constraints applied via the
+     *typebounds* rule.
+7. Once the result has been computed it is returned to the
+   *kernel/fork.c* system call via the initial *selinux_task_create()*
+   function. In this case the ***fork**(2)* call is allowed.
+8. **The End.**

-**Table 6: SELinux filesystem Information**
+interface, it is not recommended - use the
+[***libselinux***]((libselinux_functions.md#appendix-b---libselinux-api-summary)
+or *libsepol* library.
+
+*/sys/fs/selinux* - Directory
+
+- This is the root directory where the SELinux kernel exports relevant
+  information regarding its configuration and active policy for use by the
+  libselinux library.
+
+*access*
+
+- Compute access decision interface that is used by the
+  ***security_compute_av**(3)*,***security_compute_av_flags**(3)*,
+  ***avc_has_perm**(3)* and ***avc_has_perm_noaudit**(3)* functions.
+  The kernel security server (see *security/services.c*) converts the
+  contexts to SIDs and then calls the *security_compute_av_user* function
+  to compute the new SID that is then converted to a context string.
+  Requires *security { compute_av }* permission.
+
+*checkreqprot*
+
+- *0* = Check requested protection applied by kernel.
+  *1* = Check protection requested by application. This is the default.
+  These apply to the *mmap* and *mprotect* kernel calls. Default value can
+  be changed at boot time via the *checkreqprot=* parameter.
+  Requires *security { setcheckreqprot }* permission.
+
+*commit_pending_bools*
+
+- Commit new boolean values to the kernel policy.
+  Requires *security { setbool }* permission.
+
+*context*
+
+- Validate context interface used by the ***security_check_context**(3)*
+  function.
+  Requires *security { check_context }* permission.
+
+*create*
+
+- Compute create labeling decision interface that is used by the
+  ***security_compute_create**(3)* and ***avc_compute_create**(3)* functions.
+  The kernel security server (see *security/selinux/ss/services.c*) converts
+  the contexts to SIDs and then calls the *security_transition_sid_user*
+  function to compute the new SID that is then converted to a context string.
+  Requires *security { compute_create }* permission.
+
+*deny_unknown*, *reject_unknown*
+
+- These two files export *deny_unknown*, (read by the
+  ***security_deny_unknown**(3)* function) and *reject_unknown* status
+  to user space.
+  These are taken from the *handle-unknown* parameter set in the
+  [***/etc/selinux/semanage.conf***](global_config_files.md#etcselinuxsemanage.conf)
+  when policy is being built and are set as follows:
+  - *deny:reject*
+  - 0:0 = Allow unknown object class / permissions. This will set the
+    returned AV with all 1's.
+  - 1:0 = Deny unknown object class / permissions (the default). This will
+    set the returned AV with all 0's.
+  - 1:1 = Reject loading the policy if it does not contain all the object
+    classes / permissions.
+
+*disable*
+
+- Disable SELinux until next reboot.
+
+*enforce*
+
+- Get or set enforcing status.
+  Requires *security { setenforce }* permission.
+
+*load*
+
+- Load policy interface.
+  Requires *security { load_policy }* permission.
+
+*member*
+
+- Compute polyinstantiation membership decision interface that is used by
+  the ***security_compute_member**(3)* and ***avc_compute_member**(3)*
+  functions.
+  The kernel security server (see *security/selinux/ss/services.c*) converts
+  the contexts to SIDs and then calls the *security_member_sid()* function
+  to compute the new SID that is then converted to a context string.
+  Requires *security { compute_member }* permission.
+
+*mls*
+
+- Returns 1 if MLS policy is enabled or 0 if not.
+
+*null*
+
+- The SELinux equivalent of */dev/null* for file descriptors that have been
+  redirected by SELinux.
+
+*policy*
+
+- Interface to upload the current running policy in kernel binary format.
+  This is useful to check the running policy using ***apol**(1)*,
+  *dispol*/*sedispol* etc. (e.g. *apol /sys/fs/selinux/policy*).
+
+*policyvers*
+
+- Returns supported policy version for kernel. Read by
+  ***security_policyvers**(3)* function.
+
+*relabel*
+
+- Compute relabeling decision interface that is used by the
+  ***security_compute_relabel**(3)* function.
+  The kernel security server (see *security/selinux/ss/services.c*) converts
+  the contexts to SIDs and then calls the *security_change_sid()* function
+  to compute the new SID that is then converted to a context string.
+  Requires *security { compute_relabel }* permission.
+
+*status*
+
+- This can be used to obtain enforcing mode and policy load changes with
+  much less over-head than using the *libselinux* netlink / call backs.
+  This was added for Object Managers that have high volumes of AVC requests
+  so they can quickly check whether to invalidate their cache or not.
+  The status structure indicates the following:
+  - *version* - Version number of the status structure. This will increase
+    as other entries are added.
+  - *sequence* - This is incremented for each event with an even number
+    meaning that the events are stable. An odd number indicates that one of
+    the events is changing and therefore the userspace application should
+    wait before reading the status of any event.
+  - *enforcing* - *0* = Permissive mode, *1* = Enforcing mode.
+  - *policyload* - This contains the policy load sequence number and should
+    be read and stored, then compared to detect a policy reload.
+  - *deny_unknown* - *0* = Allow and *1* = Deny unknown object classes /
+    permissions. This is the same as the *deny_unknown* entry above.
+
+*user*
+
+- Compute reachable user contexts interface that is used by the
+  deprecated ***security_compute_user**(3)* function.
+  The kernel security server (see *security/selinux/ss/services.c*) converts
+  the contexts to SIDs and then calls the *security_get_user_sids()* function
+  to compute the user SIDs that are then converted to context strings.
+  Requires *security { compute_user }* permission.
+
+*validatetrans*
+
+- Compute *validatetrans* decision interface.
+  Requires *security { validate_trans }* permission.
+  Used by the ***security_validatetrans**(3)* function.
+
+*/sys/fs/selinux/avc* - Directory
+
+- This directory contains information regarding the kernel AVC that can be
+  displayed by the ***avcstat**(8)* command.
+
+*avc/cache_stats*
+
+- Shows the kernel AVC lookups, hits, misses etc.
+
+*avc/cache_threshold*
+
+- The default value is 512, however caching can be turned off (but
+  performance suffers) by: *echo 0 \> /selinux/avc/cache_threshold*
+  Requires *security { setsecparam }* permission.
+
+*avc/hash_stats*
+
+- Shows the number of kernel AVC entries, longest chain etc.
+
+*/sys/fs/selinux/booleans* - Directory
+
+- Contains a file named after each boolean defined by policy.
+
+*booleans/\<boolean_name\>*
+
+- Each file contains the current and pending status of the boolean
+  (0 = false or 1 = true). The ***getsebool**(8)*, ***setsebool**(8)*
+  and ***sestatus**(8)* commands use this interface via the *libselinux*
+  library functions.
+
+*/sys/fs/selinux/initial_contexts* - Directory
+
+- Contains a file named after each initial SID defined by policy.
+
+*initial_contexts/\<initial_sid\>*
+
+- Each file contains the initial SID context as defined by policy
+  (e.g. *any_socket* context: *system_u:object_r:unlabeled_t:s0*).
+
+*/sys/fs/selinux/policy_capabilities* - Directory
+
+- Contains a file named after each policy capability defined by policy
+  using the *policycap* statement. Their default values are false.
+
+*policy_capabilities/always_check_network*
+
+- If true SECMARK and NetLabel peer labeling are always enabled even if
+  there are no SECMARK, NetLabel or Labeled IPsec rules configured.
+  This forces checking of the *packet* class to protect the system should
+  any rules fail to load or they get maliciously flushed.
+  Requires kernel 3.13 minimum.
+
+*policy_capabilities/cgroup_seclabel*
+
+- Allows userspace to set labels on cgroup/cgroup2 files, enabling
+  fine-grained labeling of cgroup files by userspace.
+  Requires kernel 4.11 minimum.
+
+*policy_capabilities/extended_socket_class*
+
+- Enables the use of separate socket security classes for all network
+  address families rather than the generic socket class.
+
+*policy_capabilities/genfs_seclabel_symlinks*
+
+- Enables fine-grained labeling of symlinks in pseudo filesystems based
+  on *genfscon* rules.
+
+*policy_capabilities/network_peer_controls*
+
+- If true the following *network_peer_controls* are enabled:
+  - *node { sendto recvfrom }*
+  - *netif { ingress egress }*
+  - *peer { recv }*
+
+*policy_capabilities/nnp_nosuid_transition*
+
+- Enables SELinux domain transitions to occur under *no_new_privs* (NNP)
+  or on *nosuid* mounts if the corresponding permission (*nnp_transition*
+  for NNP, *nosuid_transition* for *nosuid*, defined in the *process2*
+  security class) is allowed between the old and new contexts.
+
+*policy_capabilities/open_perms*
+
+- If true the *open* permission is enabled by default on the following
+  object classes: *dir*, *file*, *fifo_file*, *chr_file*, *blk_file*.
+
+*/sys/fs/selinux/class* - Directory
+
+- Contains a directory named after each class defined by policy.
+
+*class/\<object_class\>* - Directory
+
+- Each class directory contains an *index* file and a *perms* directory.
+
+*class/\<object_class\>/index*
+
+- This file contains an allocated class number that is derived from the
+  policy source order (e.g. alg_socket is the 124th class entry in the
+  policy taken from the Fedora *policy/flask/security_classes* file
+  (or 121st for the Reference Policy)).
+
+*class/\<object_class\>/perms* - Directory
+
+- Contains one file named after each permission defined by policy.
+
+*class/\<object_class\>/perms/\<perm_name\>*
+
+- Each file is named by the permission assigned in policy and contains
+  an allocated permission number that is derived from the policy source order
+  (e.g. *accept* is the 15th permission from the Fedora or Reference Policy
+  *policy/flask/access_vector* file for the *alg_socket*).
 
 Notes:
 
-1.  Kernel SIDs are not passed to userspace only the context strings.
-2.  The */proc* filesystem exports the process security context string
-    to userspace via */proc/&lt;self|pid&gt;/attr* and
-    */proc/&lt;self|pid&gt;/task/&lt;tid&gt;/attr/&lt;attr&gt;*
-    interfaces.
