The implementation for NETLINK_FIREWALL and NETLINK_IP6_FW protocols
was removed from the kernel in commit
d16cf20e2f2f13411eece7f7fb72c17d141c4a84 ("netfilter: remove ip_queue
support") circa Linux 3.5. Consequently, kernels >= 3.5 should never
perform permission checks on these classes although they remained
defined in the SELinux kernel classmap until the netlink classes
were updated by
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=6c6d2e9bde1c1c87a7ead806f8f5e2181d41a652
circa Linux v4.2.
Removing these class definitions would break legacy userspace that relies
upon stable values for the userspace security class definitions since it
will perturb those values by removing classes that preceded them. dbus-daemon
in particular is known to break if its dbus class changes at runtime,
which could occur upon a policy reload that removes these classes.
Fixing this requires ensuring that dbus-daemon looks up the appropriate
class value on each use or upon policy reload, via userspace interfaces
such as selinux_check_access(), string_to_security_class(), and/or
selinux_set_callback(SELINUX_CB_POLICYLOAD, ...) with a callback function
that remaps the class value if needed. Other userspace policy enforcers
are believed to have been updated in recent versions but older versions
may break upon such a change.
Hence, this change renames these classes with obsolete_ prefixes and
removes all rules referencing them from refpolicy, thereby preserving
the class numbering for subsequent classes while making it clear that
these classses are no longer meaningful for modern kernels.
This change does however create a potential compatibility break for
kernels < 3.5, since the policy will cease to define the kernel class
names and therefore the kernel will handle permission checks on the
class based on the handle_unknown setting in policy. For most
Linux distributions, this will default to allow and therefore avoid
breaking userspace but will fail open. For kernels < 2.6.33 (i.e.
the dynamic class/perm discovery support), the presence of a class
in policy with the same number but a different name than the kernel
class will cause the policy load to fail entirely.

Every Infiniband network will have a default pkey, so that is labeled.
The rest of the pkey configuration is network specific. The policy allows
access to the default and unlabeled pkeys for sysadm and staff users.
kernel_t is allowed access to all pkeys, which it needs to process and
route management datagrams.
Endports are all unlabeled by default, sysadm users are allowed to
manage the subnet on unlabeled endports. kernel_t is allowed to manage
the subnet on all ibendports, which is required for configuring the HCA.
This patch requires selinux series: "SELinux user space support for
Infiniband RDMA", due to the new ipkeycon labeling mechanism.

Linux kernel commit da69a5306ab9 ("selinux: support distinctions among all
network address families") triggers a build error if a new address family
is added without defining a corresponding SELinux security class. As a
result, the smc_socket class was added to the kernel to resolve a build
failure as part of merge commit 3051bf36c25d that introduced AF_SMC circa
Linux 4.11. Define this security class and its access vector, note that it
is enabled as part of the extended_socket_class policy capability, and add
it to the socket_class_set macro.

A few of the socket classes added by commit 09ebf2b59a ("refpolicy:
Define extended_socket_class policy capability and socket classes") are
never used because sockets can never be created with the associated
address family. Remove these unused socket security classes.
The removed classes are bridge_socket for PF_BRIDGE, ib_socket for PF_IB,
and mpls_socket for PF_MPLS.

Add a (default disabled) definition for the extended_socket_class policy
capability used to enable the use of separate socket security classes
for all network address families rather than the generic socket class.
The capability also enables the use of separate security classes for ICMP
and SCTP sockets, which were previously mapped to rawip_socket class.
Add definitions for the new socket classes and access vectors enabled by
this capability. Add the new socket classes to the socket_class_set macro,
which also covers allowing access by unconfined domains. Allowing access
by other domains to the new socket security classes is left to future
commits.
The kernel support will be included in Linux 4.11+.
Building policy with this capability enabled will require libsepol 2.7+.
This change leaves the capability disabled by default.

Define new netlink socket security classes introduced by kernel commit
223ae516404a7a65f09e79a1c0291521c233336e.
Note that this does not remove the long-since obsolete
netlink_firewall_socket and netlink_ip6_fw_socket classes
from refpolicy in case they are still needed for legacy
distribution policies.
Add the new socket classes to socket_class_set.
Update ubac and mls constraints for the new socket classes.
Add allow rules for a few specific known cases (netutils, iptables,
netlabel, ifconfig, udev) in core policy that require access.
Further refinement for the contrib tree will be needed. Any allow
rule previously written on :netlink_socket may need to be rewritten or
duplicated for one of the more specific classes. For now, we retain the
existing :netlink_socket rules for compatibility on older kernels.

Pair of objects which supported by Interbase/Firebird/Red Database:
db_exception - exception which can be thrown from PSQL
db_domain - named set of column attributes
The attached patch adds a few database object classes, as follows:
* db_schema
------------
A schema object performs as a namespace in database; similar to
directories in filesystem.
It seems some of (but not all) database objects are stored within
a certain schema logically. We can qualify these objects using
schema name. For example, a table: "my_tbl" within a schema: "my_scm"
is identified by "my_scm.my_tbl". This table is completely different
from "your_scm.my_tbl" that it a table within a schema: "your_scm".
Its characteristics is similar to a directory in filesystem, so
it has similar permissions.
The 'search' controls to resolve object name within a schema.
The 'add_name' and 'remove_name' controls to add/remove an object
to/from a schema.

http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/sql-createschema.html
In the past discussion, a rubix folks concerned about no object
class definition for schema and catalog which is an upper level
namespace. Since I'm not certain whether we have a disadvantage
when 'db_schema' class is applied on catalog class, I don't add
this definition yet.
Default security context of 'db_table' and 'db_procedure' classes
get being computed using type_transition with 'db_schema' class,
instead of 'db_database' class. It reflects logical hierarchy of
database object more correctly.
* db_view
----------
A view object performs as a virtual table. We can run SELECT
statement on views, although it has no physical entities.
The definition of views are expanded in run-time, so it allows
us to describe complex queries with keeping readability.
This object class uniquely provides 'expand' permission that
controls whether user can expand this view, or not.
The default security context shall be computed by type transition
rule with a schema object that owning the view.
See also,
http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/sql-createview.html
* db_sequence
--------------
A sequence object is a sequential number generator.
This object class uniquely provides 'get_value', 'next_value' and
'set_value' permissions. The 'get_value' controls to reference the
sequence object. The 'next_value' controls to fetch and increment
the value of sequence object. The 'set_value' controls to set
an arbitrary value.
The default security context shall be computed by type transition
rule with a schema object that owning the sequence.
See also,
http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/sql-createsequence.html
* db_language
--------------
A language object is an installed engine to execute procedures.
PostgreSQL supports to define SQL procedures using regular script
languages; such as Perl, Tcl, not only SQL or binary modules.
In addition, v9.0 or later supports DO statement. It allows us to
execute a script statement on server side without defining a SQL
procedure. It requires to control whether user can execute DO
statement on this language, or not.
This object class uniquely provides 'implement' and 'execute'
permissions. The 'implement' controls whether a procedure can
be implemented with this language, or not. So, it takes security
context of the procedure as subject. The 'execute' controls to
execute code block using DO statement.
The default security context shall be computed by type transition
rule with a database object, because it is not owned by a certain
schema.
In the default policy, we provide two types: 'sepgsql_lang_t' and
'sepgsql_safe_lang_t' that allows unpriv users to execute DO
statement. The default is 'sepgsql_leng_t'.
We assume newly installed language may be harm, so DBA has to relabel
it explicitly, if he want user defined procedures using the language.

P.S)
I found a bug in MCS. It didn't constraint 'relabelfrom' permission
of 'db_procedure' class. IIRC, I fixed it before, but it might be
only MLS side. Sorry.
Thanks,

This is needed to allow more fine-grained control over X devices without
using different types. Using different types is problematic because
devices act as subjects in the X Flask implementation, and subjects
cannot be labeled through a type transition (since the output role is
hardcoded to object_r).
