+--- What is AppArmor? ---
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+AppArmor is MAC style security extension for the Linux kernel. It implements
|
|
|
+a task centered policy, with task "profiles" being created and loaded
|
|
|
+from user space. Tasks on the system that do not have a profile defined for
|
|
|
+them run in an unconfined state which is equivalent to standard Linux DAC
|
|
|
+permissions.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+--- How to enable/disable ---
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+set CONFIG_SECURITY_APPARMOR=y
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If AppArmor should be selected as the default security module then
|
|
|
+ set CONFIG_DEFAULT_SECURITY="apparmor"
|
|
|
+ and CONFIG_SECURITY_APPARMOR_BOOTPARAM_VALUE=1
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Build the kernel
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If AppArmor is not the default security module it can be enabled by passing
|
|
|
+security=apparmor on the kernel's command line.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If AppArmor is the default security module it can be disabled by passing
|
|
|
+apparmor=0, security=XXXX (where XXX is valid security module), on the
|
|
|
+kernel's command line
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+For AppArmor to enforce any restrictions beyond standard Linux DAC permissions
|
|
|
+policy must be loaded into the kernel from user space (see the Documentation
|
|
|
+and tools links).
