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