    AppArmor: functions for domain transitions · 898127c3

    AppArmor routines for controling domain transitions, which can occur at
    exec or through self directed change_profile/change_hat calls.
    
    Unconfined tasks are checked at exec against the profiles in the confining
    profile namespace to determine if a profile should be attached to the task.
    
    Confined tasks execs are controlled by the profile which provides rules
    determining which execs are allowed and if so which profiles should be
    transitioned to.
    
    Self directed domain transitions allow a task to request transition
    to a given profile.  If the transition is allowed then the profile will
    be applied, either immeditately or at exec time depending on the request.
    Immeditate self directed transitions have several security limitations
    but have uses in setting up stub transition profiles and other limited
    cases.
