This patch set aimed to provide additional functionality for all IPC objects,

The main problem here was impossibility to set up object id. This patch set
solves the problem in two steps:
1) Makes it possible to create new object (shared memory, semaphores set or
messages queue) with ID, equal to passed key.
2) Makes it possible to change existent object key.

Is there any chance you might include the LSM data as well?


Sorry, but I don't understand your question.
What is this "LSM"? Linux Shared Memory? If yes, and you mean SYSV
IPC SHM, then where do you want to include it?

He means linux security modules. (see include/linux/security.h)

Ok, thanks for explanation.
Casey, what exactly you are asking about? Am I going to implement security_*_set() functions?
