https://lore.kernel.org/selinux/20181127103605.32765-1-omosnace@xxxxxxxxxx/T/

Changes in v4:
- folded in all incremental patches
- changed the reverse lookup cache size back to the original 3 as I realized
  that I don't really have a compelling reason to change it (I just like
  sizes to be powers of two...)

Changes in v3:
(new changes are only in the "[fixup]" patches)
- fixed handling of SECSID_NULL (it is now remapped to unlabeled as before)
    * verified using selinux-testsuite
- cosmetic tweak: add sidtab_lookup_initial() helper to make
  sidtab_search_core() a bit more readable
- fixed converting of unmapped contexts
    * verified using the reproducer from Stephen Smalley
- cosmetic tweak: drop the 'out' goto label in convert_context()
- fixed SIDTAB_LEAF_ENTRIES to use SIDTAB_NODE_ALLOC_SIZE instead of using
  PAGE_SIZE directly

Changes in v2:
- dropped the first patch since it is already merged in -next
- fixed initial SID table to not reserve an entry for SECSID_NULL
- added back an equivalent of the reverse lookup cache
- fixed checkpatch.pl errors and some warnings

Testing:
An x86_64 Fedora 29 kernel with this patchset applied passes selinux-testsuite
and the reproducer from GH issue #38 [1]. I also made sure that the two bugs
discovered in previous version are now fixed.
