Setting Smack rules for the application

For Tizen, the following rules are set by the security manager for each application.

System ~APP~             rwx
System ~PKG~             rwxat
System ~PKG~::RO         rwxat
~APP~  System            wx
~APP~  System::Shared    rxl
~APP~  System::Run       rwxat
~APP~  System::Log       rwxa
~APP~  _                 l
User   ~APP~             rwx
User   ~PKG~             rwxat
User   ~PKG~::RO         rwxat
~APP~  User              wx
~APP~  User::Home        rxl
~APP~  User::App::Shared rwxat
~APP~  ~PKG~             rwxat
~APP~  ~PKG~::RO         rxl

Here, ~PKG~ is the identifier of the package and ~APP~ is the identifier of the application.

What user can run an application?

Not all user are able to run all applications. How to manage that?
