In the freeIPA project we have our own SELinux policy. We support RHEL 5
up through Fedora Rawhide. With Fedora 11 we saw some problems compiling
our SELinux module which Dan Walsh provided a patch for. I haven't tried
this on older releases yet but I'm guessing it won't work as expected
(some policies seem to have been renamed, such as
corenet_non_ipsec_sendrecv() -> corenet_all_recvfrom_unlabeled()

My question is, how can we handle this in our source tree? Are we going
to need to maintain per-release policies or does SELinux support some
sort of versioning conditionals?

thanks

The old interface will work, it just reports a nasty warning message when you compile it against newer policy. So I think you are safe compiling it on RHEL5 and installing it on F10/F11.

We compile it on the given platform so we need some way to support all at once.

For example, the code that builds fine on F-11 fails like this on F-9:

Compiling targeted ipa_webgui module
/usr/bin/checkmodule:  loading policy configuration from tmp/ipa_webgui.tmp
ipa_webgui.te":77:ERROR 'syntax error' at token 'userdom_dontaudit_search_admin_dir' on line 10764:
userdom_dontaudit_search_admin_dir(ipa_webgui_t)

The diff between F-11 and F-9 being:

-userdom_dontaudit_search_sysadm_home_dirs(ipa_webgui_t)
+userdom_dontaudit_search_admin_dir(ipa_webgui_t)
