I pushed an update of CIL to bitbucket.
I noticed that cilpolicy does not have refpolicies
"selinux_labeled_boolean" interface
This interface causes many problems.
First, when trying to convert Refpolicy to CIL, the conversion program tries to
infer parameter types (language types, not SELinux types). This interface causes
an error because the parameter which is the boolean name is used as both a
string and a boolean.
Second, the conversion program can't recognize general string concatenation
(although it does specifically handle type mangling).
Third, CIL does not allow conversion from one language type to another.
Fourth, CIL does not have the ability to concatenate strings.
All of these problems could probably be worked around, but I would prefer not to
have general string concatenation and language type conversions in CIL.
This is a perfect example of something that a higher-level language could
provide. Although that doesn't help you now.
I tried to implement it myself but i cannot get it to parse ARG2 no
matter what i try
This is what i currently have:
macro:
; Associate the specified type and name with booleans
(macro selinux_labeled_boolean ((type ARG1) (name ARG2))
(call selinux_boolean_type (ARG1))
(genfscon "selinuxfs" ARG2 (system_u object_r ARG1 ((s0)
(s0)))))
call:
(type secure_mode_insmod_t)
(call selinux_labeled_boolean (secure_mode_insmod_t
"/booleans/secure_mode_insmod"))
result:
# seinfo --genfscon | grep secure_mode_insmod
genfscon selinuxfs ARG2 system_u:object_r:secure_mode_insmod_t
Is there a work around for this?
Sorry, there is not.
I realize that the nature of cil make these kind of things less useful
but it would have been nice if it worked
