The removal of attributes that are only used in neverallow rules is
hindering AOSP adoption of the CIL compiler. This is because AOSP
extracts neverallow rules from its policy.conf for use in the Android
compatibility test suite. These neverallow rules are applied against
the binary policy being tested to check for a violation. Any
neverallow rules with an attribute that has been removed cannot be checked.

Now attributes are kept unless they are not used in any allow rule and
they are auto-generated or named "cil_gen_require" or do not have any
types associated with them.

I see now, you’re keeping them unless they are generated or marked.

I'm still not convinced  this does what's on the tin. In the case of AOSP, the
Attributes are not used in any allow rules, they are not auto-generated or named cil_gen_require
And they will not have any types associated with them. So I see them being discarded.


If they don't have types associated with them, then I misunderstood the problem and we will have to keep the attributes without types around.

Jim

I would imagine that a match on cil_gen_require, would yield the same result as cil_attr->used.
Perhaps that if cil_gen_require causes a discard, the name is bad?

Can you perhaps tell me I am idiot and maybe find a more clear way to describe this.
