Add a milter_port_t for use with inet sockets for communication
between milters and MTAs.
There are no defined ports with this type: admins are expected
to use semanage to specify the ports being used for milters.
The unconfined user is currently not allowed to call portage-related
functions. However, in a targeted system (with unconfined domains
enabled), users (including administrators) should be allowed to
transition to the portage domain.
We position the portage-related calls outside the "ifdef(distro_gentoo)"
as other distributions support Portage as well.

The semanage application supports a "semanage permissive" feature,
allowing certain domains to be marked for running permissive (rather
than the entire system).
To support this feature, we introduce a semanage_var_lib_t type for the
location where semanage will keep its permissive_<domain>.* files, and
allow semanage_t to work with fifo_files (needed for the command to
work).

We allow portage to call gpg. However, this requires that the location
where the trustdb is stored is marked as a read/write type. The default
location used within Gentoo is /etc/portage/gpg, which would lead to
portage_conf_t. However, this type should remain a read-only type.
As such, we introduce a type called portage_gpg_t for this location and
grant portage_fetch_t the necessary rights on this type.

Some applications might want to execute gpg without requiring a
transition. A possible use case is to allow applications to validate
signatures (made by GnuPG). As long as the application doesn't need to
generate signatures itself and its trustdb is not marked as
gpg_secret_t, it suffices to grant it gpg_exec().
Note that it does require the application to have read/write rights in
the directory where the trustdb is stored (as gpg tries to generate lock
files where the trustdb file is located).

Enhance portage_fetch_t from an application type to a domain. Introduce
the proper portage_fetch_exec_t and add the necessary privileges to the
domain definition to allow portage_fetch_t to be used by Portage
management utilities like layman and emerge-webrsync.
We enhance portage_domtrans() to include portage_fetch_t support.
Providing a different interface (portage_fetch_domtrans) is possible
too, but since every application and role that needs to deal with
portage needs to deal with the fetching as well, and vice versa, we keep
this in portage_domtrans.

Within Gentoo, the init system (openrc) uses a single binary (/sbin/rc)
for all its functions, be it executing init scripts, managing runlevels,
checking state, etc. This binary is not allowed to be labeled
initrc_exec_t as that would trigger domain transitions where this isn't
necessary (or even allowed).
A suggested solution is to use a separate type declaration for /sbin/rc
(rc_exec_t) which transitions where necessary.
This patch includes support for the /sbin/rc rc_exec_t type and declares
the init_rc_exec() interface which allows domains to execute the binary
without transitioning.

ebuilds aren't used).
To support live ebuilds, we introduce another label called portage_srcrepo_t

This is intended to label /run/udev, but I am assuming that everyone

The label is udev_tbl_t instead of udev_var_run_t, because /run/udev
contains the data which used to be in /dev/.udev.
Add read_lnk_file_perms to all interfaces giving access to var_run_t and
var_lock_t.
This is needed as on Debian /var/run and /var/lock are now symlinks to
/run and /run/lock.

- connect to the ssh service (check if it is reachable)
- get file system information
- read login information
- ...

The zabbix server process is a multi-process system.
In order to, for instance, shut it down, signalling within the domain is
necessary. Otherwise, the processes remain running.
Also, since there are multiple processes trying to use the same log file,
the zabbix server uses semaphores to ensure proper access to the log files
(concurrency).

After a quick discussion with dominique, new attempt due to two issues:
1. No need (or even forbidden) to have "role $1 types foo_exec_t"
2. Suggestion to use the raid_run_mdadm name instead of raid_mdadm_role. The
idea here is to use raid_mdadm_role for prefixed domains (cfr. screen)
whereas raid_run_mdadm is to transition and run into a specific domain
Without wanting to (re?)start any discussion on prefixed versus non-prefixed
domains, such a naming convention could help us to keep the reference policy
cleaner (and naming conventions easy).
Also, refpolicy InterfaceNaming document only talks about run, not role.
So, without much further ado... ;-)
The system administrator (sysadm_r role) needs to use mdadm, but is not
allowed to use the mdadm_t type.
Rather than extend raid_domtrans_mdadm to allow this as well, use a
raid_mdadm_role (a bit more conform other role usages).
The other users of raid_domtrans_mdadm are all domains that run in system_r
role, which does have this type allowed (as per the system/raid.te
definition), so it wouldn't hurt to use raid_domtrans_mdadm for this.
