Why I think this is a yes. Any kernel that wants

will have to either not build the POSIX capabilities lsm, or build it as
a module. In the later case the system will be vulnerable. The
realtime-lsm does not depend on the POSIX capabilities lsm but it forces
you to build it as a module,
I don't understand: Why does it do so? Shouldn't this be "fixed" in
the realtime-lsm then?
I don't understand the technical details. I did try this last week but
it does not work, you can either have the POSIX lsm or the realtime lsm
subscribed as a secondary module (whatever that is), but not both at the
same time. Apparently (Jack O'Quinn told me this) the modules can't
currently be stacked. I suspect this is not an issue with the
realtime-lsm module but with the underlying kernel support.
I think it's actually an issue with the POSIX capabilities module,
there's nothing the realtime LSM can do about it. For example you can
load realtime LSM on top of SELinux.
