+Description: The security information to be used on the process
+ by a Linux security module (LSM) active on the system
+ after a subsequent exec() call.
+ The details of permissions required to read from
+ this interface and hence obtain the security state
+ of the task identified is LSM dependent.
+ A process cannot write to this interface unless it
+ refers to itself.
+ The other details of permissions required to write to
+ this interface and hence change the security state of
+ the task identified are LSM dependent.
+ The format of the data used by this interface is LSM
+ dependent.
+ SELinux and AppArmor provide this interface.
