This allows you to choose different security modules to be configured into your kernel. The configuration that was used to build kernel is available at
/boot/config-*
. To check the configuration value for
CONFIG_SECURITY
, run the following command:
grep CONFIG_SECURITY /boot/config-*
For each kernel installed, a line with value "y" should be returned.
