    Of course do they define their own version of it. They do it so they can ignore what goes on in user space and ignoring it is what they're great at. Now their getting two interfaces in the kernel, one which is already outdated and not used by anyone, just to satisfy the bonehead Torvald's rule. If the rule had universal merit would the AppArmor guy not have ignored it, but it doesn't. And if it had universal merit could Torvalds use it to get his point across, which he can't, and so he gets rude and it's not going to help him. People just work around it.

    If you still cannot see the hypocrisy in it then never mind. Just follow the rules until you're a little older.

      AppArmor clearly affected user space. So far I have only seen you give an example for nVidia drivers and they cannot be defined as user space in any kind of definition since they need headers of internal kernel structures. Your definition of user space is what differs from every one else, regardless of them being BSD, macOS, Windows or Linux.
