Hi,
I think i'm having a policy compilation problem here
I've moved the domain_auto_trans($1_t, vmware_exec_t, $1_vmware_t) statement to vmware.if. I was following the domain_auto_trans rules for other apps such as mozilla. The syntax error problem went away.
But the problem is that the domain transition didn't take place. My vmplayer is still running in unconfined state.
I'm doing compilation of the vmware.pp module using make -f /usr/share/selinux/devel/Makefile. I've tried to purposely introduce errors into vmware.if to see if the compilation is effective:
e.g. domain_auto_trans($2, $2, $1_t, vmware_exec_t, $1_vmware_t)
But the make process didn't detect any errors and the compilation still went on. I did a diff between the vmware.pp at the /etc/selinux/targeted/modules/active/modules/vmware.pp and the development directory (where I do all my compilation), but there are no differences.
Does it mean if the vmware.if file is modified it will not affect the make?
How do you ensure that the changes at vmware.if effective? (well at least cause some compilation errors?)
Thanks,
Louis

this rule is generated by domain_auto_trans, so i think the
syntax error should be caused by other rules.
you may check other rules in your policy.

type definition should be in vmware.te

type definition should be in vmware.te
