LSM: Remove a comment from security.h

Remove the large comment describing the content of the
security_operations structure from security.h. This
wasn't done in the previous (2/7) patch because it
would have exceeded the mail list size limits.

/**
* struct security_operations - main security structure
*
* Security module identifier.
*
* @name:
* A string that acts as a unique identifier for the LSM with max number
* of characters = SECURITY_NAME_MAX.
*
* Security hooks for program execution operations.
*
* @bprm_set_creds:
* Save security information in the bprm->security field, typically based
* on information about the bprm->file, for later use by the apply_creds
* hook. This hook may also optionally check permissions (e.g. for
* transitions between security domains).
* This hook may be called multiple times during a single execve, e.g. for
* interpreters. The hook can tell whether it has already been called by
* checking to see if @bprm->security is non-NULL. If so, then the hook
* may decide either to retain the security information saved earlier or
* to replace it.
* @bprm contains the linux_binprm structure.
* Return 0 if the hook is successful and permission is granted.
* @bprm_check_security:
* This hook mediates the point when a search for a binary handler will
* begin. It allows a check the @bprm->security value which is set in the
* preceding set_creds call. The primary difference from set_creds is
* that the argv list and envp list are reliably available in @bprm. This
* hook may be called multiple times during a single execve; and in each
* pass set_creds is called first.
* @bprm contains the linux_binprm structure.
* Return 0 if the hook is successful and permission is granted.
* @bprm_committing_creds:
* Prepare to install the new security attributes of a process being
* transformed by an execve operation, based on the old credentials
* pointed to by @current->cred and the information set in @bprm->cred by
* the bprm_set_creds hook. @bprm points to the linux_binprm structure.
* This hook is a good place to perform state changes on the process such
* as closing open file descriptors to which access will no longer be
* granted when the attributes are changed. This is called immediately
* before commit_creds().
* @bprm_committed_creds:
* Tidy up after the installation of the new security attributes of a
* process being transformed by an execve operation. The new credentials
* have, by this point, been set to @current->cred. @bprm points to the
* linux_binprm structure. This hook is a good place to perform state
* changes on the process such as clearing out non-inheritable signal
* state. This is called immediately after commit_creds().
* @bprm_secureexec:
* Return a boolean value (0 or 1) indicating whether a "secure exec"
* is required. The flag is passed in the auxiliary table
* on the initial stack to the ELF interpreter to indicate whether libc
* should enable secure mode.
* @bprm contains the linux_binprm structure.
*
* Security hooks for filesystem operations.
*
* @sb_alloc_security:
* Allocate and attach a security structure to the sb->s_security field.
* The s_security field is initialized to NULL when the structure is
* allocated.
* @sb contains the super_block structure to be modified.
* Return 0 if operation was successful.
* @sb_free_security:
* Deallocate and clear the sb->s_security field.
* @sb contains the super_block structure to be modified.
* @sb_statfs:
* Check permission before obtaining filesystem statistics for the @mnt
* mountpoint.
* @dentry is a handle on the superblock for the filesystem.
* Return 0 if permission is granted.
* @sb_mount:
* Check permission before an object specified by @dev_name is mounted on
* the mount point named by @nd. For an ordinary mount, @dev_name
* identifies a device if the file system type requires a device. For a
* remount (@flags & MS_REMOUNT), @dev_name is irrelevant. For a
* loopback/bind mount (@flags & MS_BIND), @dev_name identifies the
* pathname of the object being mounted.
* @dev_name contains the name for object being mounted.
* @path contains the path for mount point object.
* @type contains the filesystem type.
* @flags contains the mount flags.
* @data contains the filesystem-specific data.
* Return 0 if permission is granted.
* @sb_copy_data:
* Allow mount option data to be copied prior to parsing by the filesystem,
* so that the security module can extract security-specific mount
* options cleanly (a filesystem may modify the data e.g. with strsep()).
* This also allows the original mount data to be stripped of security-
* specific options to avoid having to make filesystems aware of them.
* @type the type of filesystem being mounted.
* @orig the original mount data copied from userspace.
* @copy copied data which will be passed to the security module.
* Returns 0 if the copy was successful.
* @sb_remount:
* Extracts security system specific mount options and verifies no changes
* are being made to those options.
* @sb superblock being remounted
* @data contains the filesystem-specific data.
* Return 0 if permission is granted.
* @sb_umount:
* Check permission before the @mnt file system is unmounted.
* @mnt contains the mounted file system.
* @flags contains the unmount flags, e.g. MNT_FORCE.
* Return 0 if permission is granted.
* @sb_pivotroot:
* Check permission before pivoting the root filesystem.
* @old_path contains the path for the new location of the current root (put_old).
* @new_path contains the path for the new root (new_root).
* Return 0 if permission is granted.
* @sb_set_mnt_opts:
* Set the security relevant mount options used for a superblock
* @sb the superblock to set security mount options for
* @opts binary data structure containing all lsm mount data
* @sb_clone_mnt_opts:
* Copy all security options from a given superblock to another
* @oldsb old superblock which contain information to clone
* @newsb new superblock which needs filled in
* @sb_parse_opts_str:
* Parse a string of security data filling in the opts structure
* @options string containing all mount options known by the LSM
* @opts binary data structure usable by the LSM
* @dentry_init_security:
* Compute a context for a dentry as the inode is not yet available
* since NFSv4 has no label backed by an EA anyway.
* @dentry dentry to use in calculating the context.
* @mode mode used to determine resource type.
* @name name of the last path component used to create file
* @ctx pointer to place the pointer to the resulting context in.
* @ctxlen point to place the length of the resulting context.
*
*
* Security hooks for inode operations.
*
* @inode_alloc_security:
* Allocate and attach a security structure to @inode->i_security. The

* Return 0 if operation was successful.
* @inode_free_security:
* @inode contains the inode structure.
* Deallocate the inode security structure and set @inode->i_security to
* NULL.
* @inode_init_security:
* Obtain the security attribute name suffix and value to set on a newly
* created inode and set up the incore security field for the new inode.
* This hook is called by the fs code as part of the inode creation
* transaction and provides for atomic labeling of the inode, unlike
* the post_create/mkdir/... hooks called by the VFS. The hook function
* is expected to allocate the name and value via kmalloc, with the caller
* being responsible for calling kfree after using them.
* If the security module does not use security attributes or does
* not wish to put a security attribute on this particular inode,
* then it should return -EOPNOTSUPP to skip this processing.
* @inode contains the inode structure of the newly created inode.
* @dir contains the inode structure of the parent directory.

* Security hooks for file operations
*
* @file_permission:
* Check file permissions before accessing an open file. This hook is
* called by various operations that read or write files. A security
* module can use this hook to perform additional checking on these
* operations, e.g. to revalidate permissions on use to support privilege
* bracketing or policy changes. Notice that this hook is used when the
* actual read/write operations are performed, whereas the
* inode_security_ops hook is called when a file is opened (as well as
* many other operations).
* Caveat: Although this hook can be used to revalidate permissions for
* various system call operations that read or write files, it does not
* address the revalidation of permissions for memory-mapped files.

* Check permissions for a mmap operation at @addr.
* @addr contains virtual address that will be used for the operation.
* Return 0 if permission is granted.

* @file contains the file structure to update.
* Return 0 on success.
* @file_send_sigiotask:
* Check permission for the file owner @fown to send SIGIO or SIGURG to the
* process @tsk. Note that this hook is sometimes called from interrupt.
* Note that the fown_struct, @fown, is never outside the context of a
* struct file, so the file structure (and associated security information)
* can always be obtained:
* container_of(fown, struct file, f_owner)
* @tsk contains the structure of task receiving signal.
* @fown contains the file owner information.
