the dhcp client (another separate patch makes changes to the
ifconfig part).
Create auxiliary interfaces in the ntp module.
The permission to execute restorecon/setfiles (required by the
dhclient-script script and granted in a previous version of this
patch) is not granted, as it does not break the script functioning.
Include revisions from Chris PeBenito.

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.

Else blocks with optional statements are not supported in CIL.
Currently, if the pp to CIL compiler comes across one of these in a pp
module, it just drops the block and outputs a warning. Fortunately,
these are very rare. In fact, this is the only place in refpolicy where
an optional else block is used, and it is not clear if it is even
needed. This patch is untested, and is more to spark discussions to see
if there are any thoughts about whether or not this piece of policy is
needed.

create_netlink_socket_perms is defined as:
{ create_socket_perms nlmsg_read nlmsg_write }
This means that it is redundant to allow create_socket_perms and
nlmsg_read/nlmsg_write.
Clean up things without allowing anything new.
To flush the routing cache, ifconfig_t (through the "ip" command) requires
sys_admin capability. If not:
~# ip route flush cache
Cannot flush routing cache

This directory contains the working files for updating network-related files
(like resolv.conf for name servers) before they are copied to the fixed
location. Although already in use previously, this location (/var/run/dhcpc or
/var/run/dhcpcd) was statically defined on the system.
With the introduction of /run and systems having /var/run -> /run, this is now a
dynamically created directory by dhcpc_t. Hence, the policy is enhanced allowing
dhcpc_t to create dhcpc_var_run_t directories, and include a file transition for
directories created in the var_run_t location(s).
Changes since v1
----------------
- Use create_dirs_pattern instead of manage_dirs_pattern
