Alexander A. Klimov 93431e0607 Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: documentation
Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
  For each line:
    If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
      For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
        If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
        return 200 OK and serve the same content:
          Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

TOMOYO
======
What is TOMOYO?
===============
TOMOYO is a name-based MAC extension (LSM module) for the Linux kernel.
LiveCD-based tutorials are available at
http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/1.8/ubuntu12.04-live.html
http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/1.8/centos6-live.html
Though these tutorials use non-LSM version of TOMOYO, they are useful for you
to know what TOMOYO is.
How to enable TOMOYO?
=====================
Build the kernel with ``CONFIG_SECURITY_TOMOYO=y`` and pass ``security=tomoyo`` on
kernel's command line.
Please see http://tomoyo.osdn.jp/2.5/ for details.
Where is documentation?
=======================
User <-> Kernel interface documentation is available at
https://tomoyo.osdn.jp/2.5/policy-specification/index.html .
Materials we prepared for seminars and symposiums are available at
https://osdn.jp/projects/tomoyo/docs/?category_id=532&language_id=1 .
Below lists are chosen from three aspects.

What is future plan?
====================
We believe that inode based security and name based security are complementary
and both should be used together. But unfortunately, so far, we cannot enable
multiple LSM modules at the same time. We feel sorry that you have to give up
SELinux/SMACK/AppArmor etc. when you want to use TOMOYO.
We hope that LSM becomes stackable in future. Meanwhile, you can use non-LSM
version of TOMOYO, available at http://tomoyo.osdn.jp/1.8/ .
LSM version of TOMOYO is a subset of non-LSM version of TOMOYO. We are planning
to port non-LSM version's functionalities to LSM versions.
