Provide a security hook which is called when xattrs of a file are being
copied up. This hook is called once for each xattr and one can either
accept or reject xattr. If 0 is returned, xattr will be copied up, if 1
is returned, xattr will not be copied up and if negative error code
is returned, copy up will be aborted.

In SELinux, label of lower file is not copied up. File already has been
set with right label at the time of creation and we don't want to overwrite
that label.

The return should be -EOPNOTSUPP from security modules that don't
support the attribute "name". This will make it possible to support
multiple modules that provide attributes. (patches pending)

If the only use to which this hook is put is to identify attributes
that should be discarded it's unnecessary overhead to pass the
parameters that are never used.

Hmm.., Sorry I did not understand this one. 

So all modules will not understand all xattrs. So if they start returning
-EOPNOTSUPP, then as per current implementation, copy up operation will
be aborted. 

Current implementation relies on that a security module, returns 0 if
every thing is "name" xattr should be copied up or lsm does not care.
Negative error code is returned only if something is wrong. Given every
lsm will not understand/care about all the xattrs, we can't return 
error code if lsm does not own/understand the "name". In fact
call_int_hook() will bail out the very first time negative error code
is returned. 

IOW, current implementation will work with multiple modules providing
implementation for same hook as long as module returns 0 for the xattrs
it does not understand. 

I guess I am missing something. Can you please elaborate a little more.

Ok, I will get rid of extra parameters. If somebody needs these, it can
be added later.

Yes, the infrastructure code will have to change to deal with the
tri-state returns. That's also true of several other hooks.

There have to be four states. I own this attribute, and want you
to use it. I own this attribute and I want you to ignore it. I don't
own this attribute. I own this attribute and something went terribly
wrong, such as running out of memory.

To continue the earlier feedback about mixing generic LSM hook
definitions with the SELinux specific hook implementations - I prefer
to see patchsets organized in the following manner:

[PATCH 1/X] - add new LSM hooks and the calls from the relevant
subsystems, e.g.
{security/security.c,include/linux/security.h,fs/overlayfs/*}
[PATCH 2/X] - LSM specific hook implementation, e.g. security/selinux/*
[PATCH n/X] - LSM specific hook implementation, e.g. security/smack/*

Ok, so we have 3 states currently and we should have four.

I own this attribute and want you to use it ---> Return 0
I own this attribute and want you to ignore it --> Return 1
I don't own this attribute --> -EOPNOTSUPP
Something went terribly wrong --> Negative error code.

I can modify call_int_hook() to continue if -EOPNOTSUPP is returned. And
if none of the LSMs claimed xattr, caller will get -EOPNOTSUPP.

But what is caller supposed to do with it. There might be xattrs which
are just user data (user.foo) and aborting copying up will not make sense.
That means caller will continue to copy up anyway and treat -EOPNOTSUPP
as success.

IOW, What are we going to gain by introducing this extra state when none
of the LSMs claims to know about the xattr name passed in.

Or you are looking for something where caller does not see -EOPNOTSUPP. It
is useful for call_int_hook_foo() where it will return after first LSM
has claimed the "name".
