This patch adds the support of security labels for f2fs, which will be used by Linus Security Models (LSMs). Quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Security_Modules: "Linux Security Modules (LSM) is a framework that allows the Linux kernel to support a variety of computer security models while avoiding favoritism toward any single security implementation. The framework is licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License and is standard part of the Linux kernel since Linux 2.6. AppArmor, SELinux, Smack and TOMOYO Linux are the currently accepted modules in the official kernel.". Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>

F2FS is based on Log-structured File System (LFS), which supports
|
|
versatile "flash-friendly" features. The design has been focused on
|
|
addressing the fundamental issues in LFS, which are snowball effect
|
|
of wandering tree and high cleaning overhead.
|
|
|
|
Since flash-based storages show different characteristics according to
|
|
the internal geometry or flash memory management schemes aka FTL, F2FS
|
|
and tools support various parameters not only for configuring on-disk
|
|
layout, but also for selecting allocation and cleaning algorithms.

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 f2fs filesystem, so that it requires enabling
|
|
the extended attribute support in advance.

If you are not using a security module, say N.
