9*4882a593SmuzhiyunThe secid member in the flow structure is used in LSMs (e.g. SELinux) to indicate
10*4882a593Smuzhiyunthe label of the flow. This label of the flow is currently used in selecting
11*4882a593Smuzhiyunmatching labeled xfrm(s).
12*4882a593Smuzhiyun
13*4882a593SmuzhiyunIf this is an outbound flow, the label is derived from the socket, if any, or
14*4882a593Smuzhiyunthe incoming packet this flow is being generated as a response to (e.g. tcp
15*4882a593Smuzhiyunresets, timewait ack, etc.). It is also conceivable that the label could be
16*4882a593Smuzhiyunderived from other sources such as process context, device, etc., in special
17*4882a593Smuzhiyuncases, as may be appropriate.
18*4882a593Smuzhiyun
19*4882a593SmuzhiyunIf this is an inbound flow, the label is derived from the IPSec security
20*4882a593Smuzhiyunassociations, if any, used by the packet.
