yes. But I want to put this metapolicy in a concentrated configure file. Then
we can
write our this rule, such as "(a and b) or c", in a file. When boot up, kernel
will read
it . As you said , I will implement it using sysfs filesystem.

Yes. The DAC is implemented by ACL.

Ok, when the framework comes out, I will put it to maillist. We accomplished
our
own MAC system.
