I am supposed to create a security application for linux. Basically once the file is open i have to read somethin and on the basis of that i give the user permissions. In windows this was implemented using somethin called a filter driver. In linux i know this can be done by adding some code to the kernel and then creating patch. But i dont want this. It has to be like package or something. How exactly can this be done?? Just want some basic ideas for a start.

Actually i would like scheme above the kernel. So that i would not have to compile the kernel whenever anyone wants to use the security mechanism. This is something i am not able to find.

Hi Shreyas,
I am also on the way of designing a filter driver for Linux. What I want to achieve is a monitoring mechanism which notifies a file change including the path.
For eg, if we edit or delete a file, it should be notified from the Kernel space. If you have any idead, do share it with me.

Is there any examples available of how to use the LSM to create my own security application?? I searched but not got anythin concrete.
