i noticed a bug in the last udev-selinux patch that went past [these?] lists last week. i sent a request for acknowldgement, and unfortunately i am very sorry to say that i have not received an acknowledgement, and so unfortunately i will continue to request an acknowledgement from the people doing the redhat-based development until i receive one. if it wasn't important - namely that the bug in the patch will result in incorrect policy file development for udev.te - i wouldn't bother. the bug is that the patch merged three near-identical sections of code that use matchpathcon(..., mode) into a function, where mode was S_IFDIR, SF_IFLNK and S_IFsomething ... ... and the person who reworked the patch forgot to pass the mode argument down to matchpathcon. result: on all three instances of calling matchpathcon, the file_contexts for DIRECTORIES will be looked up. it was either dan or colin, and i can't remember who. anyone who is doing udev selinux development who is NOT using my original patch, non-optimised as it is, please be advised. l. -- -- Truth, honesty and respect are rare commodities that all spring from the same well: Love.
