Annotated Snippet

TOMOYO

What is TOMOYO?
===============

TOMOYO is a name-based MAC extension (LSM module) for the Linux kernel.

LiveCD-based tutorials are available at

https://tomoyo.sourceforge.net/1.8/ubuntu12.04-live.html
https://tomoyo.sourceforge.net/1.8/centos6-live.html

Though these tutorials use non-LSM version of TOMOYO, they are useful for you
to know what TOMOYO is.

How to enable TOMOYO?
=====================

Build the kernel with ``CONFIG_SECURITY_TOMOYO=y`` and pass ``security=tomoyo`` on
kernel's command line.

Please see https://tomoyo.sourceforge.net/2.6/ for details.

Where is documentation?
=======================

User <-> Kernel interface documentation is available at
https://tomoyo.sourceforge.net/2.6/policy-specification/index.html .

Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
Implementation status: atlas-only.

Implementation Notes

This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
