I'm sponsoring this case for Keith Wesolowski and myself. I believe it qualifies for self review and therefore have marked it "closed approved automatic." I'm happy to turn it into a fast track and set the timer if anyone believes I've misjudged.
Gary.. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Background: =========== PSARC/2007/177 SMF Read-Protected Property Storage specified the "read_authorization" property for property groups of type "application" (SCF_GROUP_APPLICATION). "application" is one of the predefined property group types. The other predefined types are "framework", "dependency", "method" and "template". SMF also provides for service bundles (manifests) to define other ``application-specific'' typed property groups as desired. Problem: ======== As specified, only "application" typed property groups may be read protected. This was not the original case's intent. Solution: ========= Extend the context of Read-Protected Property Storage to include application-specific typed property groups. "framework", "dependency", "method" and "template" typed property groups are part of the infrastructure and will not be permitted to be read protected.
