The only known user of this interface was libselinux and its internal usage of this interface for get_ordered_context_list(3) was removed in Feb 2020, with a deprecation warning added to security_compute_user(3) at the same time. Add a deprecation warning to the kernel and schedule it for final removal in 2025. Signed-off-by: Stephen Smalley <stephen.smalley.work@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul@paul-moore.com>

Description:
|
|
|
|
The selinuxfs "user" node allows userspace to request a list
|
|
of security contexts that can be reached for a given SELinux
|
|
user from a given starting context. This was used by libselinux
|
|
when various login-style programs requested contexts for
|
|
users, but libselinux stopped using it in 2020.
|
|
Kernel support will be removed no sooner than Dec 2025.
