RestrictedSecurity profiles sometimes share a lot of duplicate settings with only minor differences. With these changes the extension, similar to object-orientation, of profiles becomes possible. More specifically, a profile A can extend another a profile B, using RestrictedSecurity.<profile A name>.extends = RestrictedSecurity.<profile B name>. This allows profile A to inherit all of profile B's properties. One can add additional properties to profile A, or amend some of the existing ones. That includes overriding, appending or removing from a property (wherever that's applicable). An additional property is introduced. The RestrictedSecurity.<profile name>.desc.hash = <hash algorithm>:<hash> is used to ensure the profile hasn't been unintentionally altered. The profile's properties are hashed using the selected <hash algorithm>, and the result is compared to the <hash> provided through the property. This property is mandatory for base profiles (i.e., profiles that are not extending anything), and optional for the rest. Signed-off-by: Kostas Tsiounis <[email protected]>
