The interfaces I want to add are something like
template - xserver_common_domain_template(staff)
Used to generate types for $1_xserver_t and $1_xrootwindow_t
interface - xserver_use(staff, staff, staff_nsplugin_t)
xserver_use(xdm, staff, staff_nsplugin_t)
All interaction between application and X Server
template - xserver_common_user_template(staff, staff_r, staff_t)
This generates all of the user types/rules for a user X Sessionps
started by the user, Calls out to xserver_common_template
interface - xserver_common_app(staff, staff_nsplugin_t)
This defines all the common rules for a confined application like
nsplugin running in the user domain
Then we can begin to write communications between staff and unconfined_t
or other user domains.
The problem I have is the compiler is too stupid to understand the
differences between a gen_requires block defining the required types and
the actual type definition.
So I end up in a catch 22 where the compiler tells me I need to require
$1_rootwindow_t, but if I gen_require type $1_rootwindow_t, it tells me
I have a duplicate definition.
So if you have a derived type in a gen_requires block the compiler can
not handle it.
