[PATCH][SELINUX] add policyvers to selinuxfs

From: James Morris <jmorris_at_redhat.com>
Date: Mon, 6 Oct 2003 21:09:11 -0400 (EDT)


This patch adds a file to the root selinuxfs directory which returns the security policy version associated with the currently running kernel. Its purpose is to allow scripts to determine which version of policy to load.

Please apply.
