From: John Ogness on

processes to hide themselves from DazukoFS file access
control.

Patched against 2.6.28-rc9.

access events to be handled by each group. For this reason it is important
that an application deletes a group it has created, once it should no longer
perform online file access control.
+
+All processes on the system that try to access files on a DazukoFS mount will
+require authorization (if at least one group exists). This is also true for
+registered process that try to access files on a DazukoFS mount.
+
+IMPORTANT: If registered processes access files on a DazukoFS mount, they
+ will cause new file access events that must be authorized. This
+ could lead to deadlock if not properly considered.
+
+Since the registered process receives an open file descriptor to the file
+being accessed, there should be no need for that process to open other
+files. However, if the process must open additional files (and these
+files potentially lie on a DazukoFS mount), it is possible for processes
+to hide themselves from DazukoFS.
+
+By opening the /dev/dazukofs.ign device, a process will be ignored by
+DazukoFS. It does not matter if the process is registered or not. No data
+must be written or read from the device. It simply needs to be opened.
+
+WARNING: Make sure the permissions for /dev/dazukofs.ign are securely
+ set. Otherwise, any process could potentially hide itself.
+
+As soon as the /dev/dazukofs.ign device is closed, the process is no
+longer hidden.
