[PATCH] ubifs: add CONFIG_UBIFS_FS_SECURITY to disable/enable security labels

From: Hyunchul Lee
Date: Fri Mar 03 2017 - 02:59:46 EST


From: Hyunchul Lee <cheol.lee@xxxxxxx>

When write syscall is called, every time security label is searched to
determine that file's privileges should be changed.
If LSM(Linux Security Model) is not used, this is useless.

So introduce CONFIG_UBIFS_SECURITY to disable security labels. it's default
value is "y".

+ Security labels provide an access control facility to support Linux
+ Security Models (LSMs) accepted by AppArmor, SELinux, Smack and TOMOYO
+ Linux. This option enables an extended attribute handler for file
+ security labels in the ubifs filesystem, so that it requires enabling
+ the extended attribute support in advance.
+
+ If you are not using a security module, say N.
