Very interesting, thanks for looking into it deeper. I'll leave most of this uncommented. > This does sound weird. Could you please give me some references to > this so that I can understand better?

Okay, you are right, it wasn't AppArmor, it was SELinux. According to Kconfig, SELinux depends on Audit. And here is my problem: Audit is enabled by default and must be explicitly disabled by the admin. This is a showstopper for me! There is no kernel option to configure audit to be disabled by default (as far as I am aware) so that it can be enabled with 'audit=1' on the command line. As long as SELinux needs audit and audit is enabled by default, SELinux will not make it to the 3.14+ versions of our linux package.
