It depends on whether you have a type_transition rule defined in policy. For example, in the Android policy, we have the create_pty() macro defined in te_macros, and if you had create_pty(init) in your policy, then it would set up a type transition so that any pty created by init would be labeled with a init_devpts type rather than just devpts. _______________________________________________ Selinux mailing list Selinux@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe, send email to Selinux-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.
