45#Information Flow
46#
47# All of the permissions in SELinux can be described in terms of
48# information flow. For example, a read of a file is a flow of
49# information from that file to the process reading. Viewing
50# permissions in these terms can be used to model a varity of
51# security properties.
52#
53# Here we have some infrastructure for understanding permissions
54# in terms of information flow
55#
56#::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
57
58# Information flow deals with information either flowing from a subject
59# to and object ("write") or to a subject from an object ("read"). Read
60# or write is described from the subject point-of-view. It is also possible
61# for a permission to represent both a read and write (though the flow is
62# typical asymettric in terms of bandwidth). It is also possible for
63# permission to not flow information (meaning that the result is pure
64# side-effect).
65#

67# of information flow.
