Hi!
I wanted to help resolving bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=211767

During some investigation I found that after mounting ntfs partition files have context set to unlabeled_t. I downloaded selinux-policy.srpm and found in policy/modules/kernel/filesystem.te these lines:

#
# dosfs_t is the type for fat and vfat
# filesystems and their files.
#
type dosfs_t;
fs_noxattr_type(dosfs_t)
allow dosfs_t fs_t:filesystem associate;
genfscon fat / gen_context(system_u:object_r:dosfs_t,s0)
genfscon msdos / gen_context(system_u:object_r:dosfs_t,s0)
genfscon ntfs / gen_context(system_u:object_r:dosfs_t,s0)
genfscon vfat / gen_context(system_u:object_r:dosfs_t,s0)

I thought "Great, I need similar entry in my module!". I prepared this file:
[root@X ~]# cat ntfs3g.te
module ntfs3g 1.0;

require {
        class chr_file { getattr read write };
        class file execute_no_trans;
        type device_t;
        type dosfs_t;
        type mount_exec_t;
        type mount_t;
        role system_r;
};

genfscon ntfs-3g / gen_context(system_u:object_r:dosfs_t,s0)
allow mount_t device_t:chr_file { getattr read write };
allow mount_t mount_exec_t:file execute_no_trans;
[root@X ~]#

As you can guess it does not compile ;-)

[root@X ~]# checkmodule -M -m -o ntfs3g.mod ntfs3g.te
checkmodule:  loading policy configuration from ntfs3g.te
(unknown source)::ERROR 'syntax error' at token 'genfscon' on line 13:

genfscon ntfs-3g / gen_context(system_u:object_r:dosfs_t,s0)
checkmodule:  error(s) encountered while parsing configuration
[root@X ~]#

What I have done wrong?

(FC6, selinux-policy-targeted-2.4.1-3.fc6)
Modules do not allow genfscon statements, the grammar of modules is a subset of the base policy grammar. unfortunately you will have to add this entry to the base policy. Refpolicy's concept of module may be a little misleading, it doesn't convert to each one being able to compile as a policy module, there are several modules that are required to be part of base.

However, is this filesystem slated for upstream kernel? If so it should be added to refpolicy anyway, it would get the nfs_t type though, instead of dosfs_t
