[Bug 446524] Re: aa-logprof: doesn't parse new null profile syntax

[Marc Deslauriers]

A feature is still missing from the preliminary patch. When aa-genprof
reloads the profile after prompting the user for changes, the kernel
does not replace the profile on active "null" processes. In order for
active processes to get their profile replaced, the profile name must be
the "null" name.

There doesn't seem to be a good way to fix this for the moment.

aa-genprof could write the profile to disk with the "null" names until
the user tells it to "finish", at which point it could re-write the
profile with the actual binary names. This would solve the problem of
someone running aa-genprof without stopping the application between
runs. On the other hand, if the application is one that executes and
stops, subsequent runs would not pick up the modified profile as it
wouldn't match the "null" name that would be in the file.
