    selinux: wrap global selinux state · aa8e712c
    Stephen Smalley authored
    Define a selinux state structure (struct selinux_state) for
    global SELinux state and pass it explicitly to all security server
    functions.  The public portion of the structure contains state
    that is used throughout the SELinux code, such as the enforcing mode.
    The structure also contains a pointer to a selinux_ss structure whose
    definition is private to the security server and contains security
    server specific state such as the policy database and SID table.
    
    This change should have no effect on SELinux behavior or APIs
    (userspace or LSM).  It merely wraps SELinux state and passes it
    explicitly as needed.
