+Subject: [PATCH] use XDG_RUNTIMESHARE_DIR
+
+When running with LSM Smack, the file returned by the
+function 'os_create_anonymous_file' is tagged with the
+security label of weston. That security label genrally doesn't
+allow sharing of files? Then passing the vreated file descriptor
+to the client application fails with EPERM.
+
+To allow file descriptors to be tagged with a security
+label that allows clients to receive and use it, that
+patch introduce the use of the environment variable
+XDG_RUNTIMESHARE_DIR that takes precedence over
+XDG_RUNTIME_DIR whe, creating anonymous file is needed.
+
+A correct setting of the shared directory using Smack's
+transmute mechanism allows set up file tag for sharing.
+
+This patch was submitted upstream for discussion but
+was rejected with the following reason (IIRC): "the
+function 'os_create_anonymous_file' and the sharing
+are obsolete and should not be used anymore. IVI was
+requiring it but newer version don't use it". Halas,
+even aligned with latest versions of IVI-shell and weston,
+the patch is needed. Because of its simplicity, it can
+remain maintained locally out of mainstream in the wait
+of further investigations.
