[Bug 1561330] Re: ps security data column includes AppArmor confinement mode in 16.04

[Tyler Hicks]

I agree and intentionally opened the bug against procps because I was
able convince myself that it was a procps change and not an AppArmor
change.

I don't think this change is a problem and, personally, I like seeing
the confinement mode in the output.

I think we've came to the conclusion that this is fine behavior so I'm
going to mark this bug as invalid since we don't plan on 'fixing'
anything here.

Title:
  ps security data column includes AppArmor confinement mode in 16.04

Status in procps package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  In Xenial, running linux 4.4.0-15-generic and procps
  2:3.3.10-4ubuntu2, I see that the security data column has changed to
  displaying the AppArmor confinement mode:

  $ ps wZ $(pidof cups-browsed)
  LABEL                             PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
  /usr/sbin/cups-browsed (enforce)  786 ?        Ssl    0:00 /usr/sbin/cups-browsed

  This is different than what is displayed in 15.10:

  $ ps wZ $(pidof cups-browsed)
  LABEL                             PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
  /usr/sbin/cups-browsed            548 ?        Ssl    0:00 /usr/sbin/cups-browsed

  There was a large AppArmor kernel change in Xenial's 4.4.0-15-generic
  so to rule that out, I booted into an earlier Xenial kernel and saw
  the same issue:

  $ uname -a
  Linux sec-xenial-i386 4.4.0-7-generic #22-Ubuntu SMP Thu Feb 18 20:50:09 UTC 2016 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux
  $ ps wZ $(pidof cups-browsed)
  LABEL                             PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
  /usr/sbin/cups-browsed (enforce)  631 ?        Ssl    0:00 /usr/sbin/cups-browsed
