The udev daemon should be able to load kernel modules not only on
systems using systemd but also on systems using former versions of
the udev daemon.

Update the udev module so that the udev domain can manage tmpfs files
and directories.
Thanks to Christian Göttsche for pointing out that this only applies
to systems not using systemd (v2).

Remove file context aliases and update file context paths to use the /run filesystem path.
Add backward compatibility file context alias for /var/run using applications like https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=783321
Lock files are still seated at /var/lock
Since the window managers are not limited by gnome-shell, the
userdomain module is modified by this patch in order to use
separate optional conditionals for the gnome and wm role templates.

This is a patch that I have created and tested to support Apache
OpenOffice with its own module (base policy part, 1/2).
The file contexts (and initial tests) are based on the default
installation path for version 4 of the office suite.
Since the second version it includes revisions from Dominick Grift.
Since the third version it should correctly manage files in home
directories and allow some other major functionality.
The fourth version of the patch introduces a boolean to enable or
disable software updates from the network (application and/or
extensions).
The fifth version of the patch adds the ability to connect to the
X display manager (XDM) using Unix domain sockets (interface
xserver_stream_connect_xdm()). Also the fifth version splits the
whole patch into separate base policy / contrib policy patches as
required.
The sixth version of this patch removes obsolete executable
permission from the unconfined module.
The seventh, eighth and nineth versions brings no changes in the base
part of the patch.
All released versions are safe to apply, each new version just
brings improved application functionality and better integration
with other desktop applications.

This permission is currently granted in an ifdef(systemd) block, but
it's also required on non-systemd systems if signed kernel modules are
being used.
- add systemd service macro sets
- add some documentation
- add some recursion to some macro sets (ipv perm, object class sets)
- deprecate domain_trans and domain_auto_trans
- remove unpriv_socket_class_set
Let unprivileged users list filesystems mounted on mount points such
as /mnt (cdrom, FAT, NTFS and so on).
This makes a great difference to the usability and effectiveness of
graphical filesystem browsers such as Gnome Nautilus and currently
comes at no security penalty because mounted filesystems can be
listed with programs such as the "df" program from GNU coreutils or
by simply reading /proc/mounts.

As we have had no response from Busybox users in the last 3 months and also no
response to the thread Luis started in 2013 I think it's safe to assume that
they don't need this.
I've attached a new patch which renames to kmod_t as you suggested. Please
consider it for inclusion.

Description: Change modutils policy to match the use of a single binary
Author: Russell Coker <russell@coker.com.au>
Last-Update: 2014-06-25
commit a7334eb0de98af11ec38b6263536fa01bc2a606c
libsemanage: validate and compile file contexts before installing
validates the fcontexts when they are still in /var/lib/selinux. Without
setfiles_t having access to read the files, validation fails and the
policy cannot be updated.
Introduce a new file context for user certificates (user_cert_t)
located in home directories.
Introduce new auxiliary interfaces to read and manage such files
files and directories.
Thanks to Christopher PeBenito for the useful suggestions that
led to this improved version of the patch.
Compared to the previous version, this patch adds the ability to
search the user home directories in the new interfaces.

Improve the existing user domain template policy:
- better support for the "user_rw_noexattrfile" boolean (enable
write operations on filesystems that do not support extended
attributes, such as FAT or cdrom filesystem);
- add support for a new "user_exec_noexattrfile" boolean to
control the execution of files from filesystems that do not
support extended attributes (potentially dangerous);
- add support for a new "user_write_removable" boolean which
enables write operations on removable devices (such as
external removable USB memory, USB mobile phones, etc).
Note that devices might be removable but support extended
attributes (Linux xattr filesystems on external USB mass storage
devices), so two separate booleans are needed for optimal
configuration flexibility.
Writing to removable mass storage devices is a major cause of
leakage of confidential information, so the new boolean defaults
to false.
Disable raw access for MLS policies (thanks to Christoper
PeBenito for suggesting this).
This new version of the patch correctly includes the definitions
of the new booleans (by including the .te file differences).

Update the lvm module to add a permission needed by cryptsetup.
At the moment the SELinux kernel code is not able yet to distinguish
the sockets in the AF_ALG namespace that are used for interfacing to
the kernel Crypto API.
In the future the SELinux kernel code will be updated to distinguish
the new socket class and so this permission will change its class
from the generic "socket" to the new socket (e.g. "alg_socket").
