AppArmor: contexts used in attaching policy to system objects
AppArmor contexts attach profiles and state to tasks, files, etc. when a direct profile reference is not sufficient. Signed-off-by: John Johansen <john.johansen@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>

16 * AppArmor sets confinement on every task, via the the aa_task_cxt and
17 * the aa_task_cxt.profile, both of which are required and are not allowed
18 * to be NULL. The aa_task_cxt is not reference counted and is unique
19 * to each cred (which is reference count). The profile pointed to by
20 * the task_cxt is reference counted.
21 *
22 * TODO
23 * If a task uses change_hat it currently does not return to the old
24 * cred or task context but instead creates a new one. Ideally the task
25 * should return to the previous cred if it has not been modified.
