    15  // Package auth implements an access control model that is a subset of Linux's.
    16  //
    17  // The auth package supports two kinds of access controls: user/group IDs and
    18  // capabilities. Each resource in the security model is associated with a user
    19  // namespace; "privileged" operations check that the operator's credentials
    20  // have the required user/group IDs or capabilities within the user namespace
    21  // of accessed resources.
