+Security Hooks
+--------------
+For security module support, three GTP specific hooks have been implemented::
+
+    security_gtp_dev_add()
+    security_gtp_dev_del()
+    security_gtp_dev_cmd()
+
+
+security_gtp_dev_add()
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Allows a module to allocate a security structure for a GTP device. Returns a
+zero on success, negative values on failure.
+If successful the GTP device ``struct gtp_dev`` will hold the allocated
+pointer in ``void *security;``.
+
+
+security_gtp_dev_del()
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Allows a module to free the security structure for a GTP device. Returns a
+zero on success, negative values on failure.
+
+
+security_gtp_dev_cmd()
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Allows a module to validate a command for the selected GTP device. Returns a
+zero on success, negative values on failure. The commands are based on values
+from ``include/uapi/linux/gtp.h`` as follows::
+
+``enum gtp_genl_cmds { GTP_CMD_NEWPDP, GTP_CMD_DELPDP, GTP_CMD_GETPDP };``
