a522d5765d libsepol: do not use handle when it is marked unused
Assigning NULL to handle does not perform anything useful and clang
complains about this:

    [-Werror,-Wused-but-marked-unused]
        handle = NULL;

e501d3b6e8 libsepol/cil: better error message with duplicate aliases + support aliases to aliases
- If two typealiasactual statements exist for the same typealias, we get
  a confusing error message mentioning that the actual arguement is not
  an alias, which is clearly allowed. This poor error occurs because the
  first typealiasactual statement resolves correctly, but when we
  resolve the alias in the second typealiasactual statement,
  cil_resolve_name tries to return what the alias points to, which is a
  type and not the required typealias. This patch creates a new function
  that does not perform the alias to actual conversion, used when we
  want an alias and not what the alias points to. This allows the
  cil_resolve_aliasactual to continue and reach the check for duplicate
  typealiasactual statements, resulting in a more meaningful error
  message.

- Add back support for aliases to aliases (broken in 5c9fcb02e),
  while still ensuring that aliases point to either the correct actual
  flavor or alias flavor, and not something else like a typeattribute.

5c9fcb02ec libsepol/cil: fix aliasactual resolution errors
- Set rc to SEPOL_ERR if the alias part of an aliasactual statement
  does not resolve to the correct alias flavor (e.g. typealias, senalias, catalias)
- Add an error check if the actual part of an aliasactual statement
  does not resolve to the correct actual flavor (type, sens, cat)

55fe40ac77 libselinux: rework selabel_subs_init() to avoid use-after-free
In selabel_subs_init(), when digest_add_specfile() fails, the returned
value is a pointer to data which has been freed (because label "err"
frees variable "sub" which is equals to the returned variable, "list").

Moreover since since commit fd56c5230c ("Separate out the calling of
local subs and dist subs in selabel_sub"), argument "list" of
selabel_subs_init() has always been NULL (rec->subs and rec->dist_subs
are both initialized to NULL in selabel_open() before
selabel_file_init() is called).

Drop selabel_file_init()'s "list" argument and free all the list items
which have been allocated in this function, when the code encounters an
error.

58962eb3d8 libsepol,checkpolicy: add binary module support for xperms
Presently we support xperms rules in source policy and in CIL modules.
The binary policy module format however was never extended for xperms.
This limitation inhibits use of xperms in refpolicy-based policy modules
(including the selinux-testsuite policy).  Update libsepol to support
linking, reading, and writing a new binary policy module version that
supports xperms rules.  Update dismod to display xperms rules in binary
policy modules.

Also, to support use of a non-base binary policy module with a newer
version on a system using a base policy module with an older version,
automatically upgrade the version during module linking.  This facilitates
usage of newer features in non-base modules without requiring rebuilding
the base module.

Tests:
1. Add an allowxperms rule to the selinux-testsuite policy and
confirm that it is properly written to the binary policy module
(displayed by dismod), converted to CIL (the latter was already supported),
and included in the kernel policy (via dispol and kernel test).

2. Use semodule_link and semodule_expand to manually link and expand
all of the .pp files via libsepol, and confirm that the allowxperms rule
is correctly propagated to the kernel policy.  This test is required to
exercise the legacy link/expand code path for binary modules that predated
CIL.

6e289bb7bf policycoreutils: fixfiles: remove bad modes of "relabel" command
* `fixfiles -B relabel` or `fixfiles -C previouscontext relabel` would
  skip the code that handles e.g. `/var/tmp`, which would be run by
  `fixfiles relabel`.  It would still remove all files in /tmp (subject to
  user confirmation).  This is confusing, undocumented, and unlikely to
  be intentional.

* `fixfiles relabel path1 path2` is the same, except it would only relabel
  the first path.

* `fixfiles -R ... relabel` was equivalent to `fixfiles -R ... restore`,
  again contradicting the man page.

Also `fixfiles onboot` would ignore paths, -C, or -R.

fixfiles is mostly for users, where it should be acceptable to remove these
non-sensical combinations.

`fixfiles -C` is used in selinux-policy rpm install scripts.  However I
believe the rpms used `fixfiles -C previouscontext restore`, and did not
either require user interaction or blow away /tmp without prompting.  So
they should still work fine.

With these combinations removed, we can remove the `exit` calls which were
seen in some of the (non-error) code paths in `restore()`.

`fixfiles -R -a` is much less useful than it was made to sound, because -R
now works recursively.  Therefore `fixfiles -R -a` relabels every file on

plain `fixfiles` (which takes about a minute).

3475893b6f policycoreutils: fixfiles: refactor into the set -u dialect
This commit allows the use of `set -u` to detect reads of unset variables.
But what I really liked was making the code more explicit about these
modes.  I hope that this is easier for a new reader to reason about.

`fixfiles restore` has accumulated five different modes it can run in.
Now use a single variable to indicate the mode, out-of-band of the
variables used for the individual modes.

Apparently `set -u` / `set -o nounset` doesn't work correctly with arrays.
If we ever need bash arrays, we can simply remove `set -u`.  The `set -u`
dialect is a strict subset.  See http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/112

Extra notes:

RESTORE_MODE was created because I couldn't bring myself to use an empty
FILEPATH, as a special case to indicate the default mode.  Arguments
to the script (paths) could be empty already, so it would mean I had to
work out how we behaved in that case and decide whether it was reasonable.

It turns out the `-B | -N time` mode is distinct and does not respect
paths.  So we can tell the user we're not going to do anything with the
paths they passed.  Make sure this distinction is shown in the usage error
message.

We already rejected the combination of `-R rpmpackage,... dir/file...`.
Being aware of the different modes just causes more bogus combinations
to be rejected.

f499b02feb policycoreutils: fixfiles: if restorecon aborts, we should too
New users may try something like `fixfiles restore -v /dir/file` -
not realizing they are required to use `fixfiles -v restore /dir/file`.

Detect that `restorecon` aborts due to being run on the non-existent file
`-v`, and stop immediately.  This will show the error much more clearly,
instead of continuing to restore `/dir/file` *without* verbose messages.

1089665e31 Add attribute expansion options
This commit adds attribute expansion statements to the policy
language allowing compiler defaults to be overridden.

Always expands an attribute example:
expandattribute { foo } true;
CIL example:
(expandtypeattribute (foo) true)

Never expand an attribute example:
expandattribute { bar } false;
CIL example:
(expandtypeattribute (bar) false)

Adding the annotations directly to policy was chosen over other
methods as it is consistent with how targeted runtime optimizations
are specified in other languages. For example, in C the "inline"
command.

Motivation

expandattribute true:
Android has been moving away from a monolithic policy binary to
a two part split policy representing the Android platform and the
underlying vendor-provided hardware interface. The goal is a stable
API allowing these two parts to be updated independently of each
other. Attributes provide an important mechanism for compatibility.
For example, when the vendor provides a HAL for the platform,
permissions needed by clients of the HAL can be granted to an
attribute. Clients need only be assigned the attribute and do not
need to be aware of the underlying types and permissions being
granted.

Inheriting permissions via attribute creates a convenient mechanism
for independence between vendor and platform policy, but results
in the creation of many attributes, and the potential for performance
issues when processes are clients of many HALs. [1] Annotating these
attributes for expansion at compile time allows us to retain the
compatibility benefits of using attributes without the performance
costs. [2]

expandattribute false:
Commit 0be23c3f15 added the capability to aggresively remove unused
attributes. This is generally useful as too many attributes assigned
to a type results in lengthy policy look up times when there is a
cache miss. However, removing attributes can also result in loss of
information used in external tests. On Android, we're considering
stripping neverallow rules from on-device policy. This is consistent
with the kernel policy binary which also did not contain neverallows.
Removing neverallow rules results in a 5-10% decrease in on-device
policy build and load and a policy size decrease of ~250k. Neverallow
rules are still asserted at build time and during device
certification (CTS). If neverallow rules are absent when secilc is
run, some attributes are being stripped from policy and neverallow
tests in CTS may be violated. [3] This change retains the aggressive
attribute stripping behavior but adds an override mechanism to
preserve attributes marked as necessary.

[1] https://github.com/SELinuxProject/cil/issues/9
[2] Annotating all HAL client attributes for expansion resulted in
    system_server's dropping from 19 attributes to 8. Because these
    attributes were not widely applied to other types, the final
    policy size change was negligible.
[3] data_file_type and service_manager_type are stripped from AOSP
    policy when using secilc's -G option. This impacts 11 neverallow
    tests in CTS.

Test: Build and boot Marlin with all hal_*_client attributes marked
    for expansion. Verify (using seinfo and sesearch) that permissions
    are correctly expanded from attributes to types.
Test: Mark types being stripped by secilc with "preserve" and verify
    that they are retained in policy and applied to the same types.

that a build tool can't find sepol/sepol.h when only libsepol is built
and a system is without sepol.h in standard paths. It should use its own
sepol.h file during build. `oveeride` needs to be used in order not to
be overridden by values provided on a command line. Same problem applies
to LDFLAGS.

Fixes:
$ make CFLAGS="" LDFLAGS=""
make[1]: Entering directory '/root/selinux/libsepol/utils'
cc     chkcon.c  -lsepol -o chkcon
chkcon.c:1:25: fatal error: sepol/sepol.h: No such file or directory
 #include <sepol/sepol.h>

$ make CFLAGS="" LDFLAGS=""
...
make -C utils
make[1]: Entering directory '/root/selinux/libsepol/utils'
cc  -I../include    chkcon.c  -lsepol -o chkcon
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lsepol
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

8e9c9a20cb policycoreutils: fixfiles: deprecate -l option
...and write log messages to standard output.

Some versions of fixfiles in 2004 created a logfile by default.
Apparently they also used `tee` to log to standard output at the same time.
We're also told that the logfile was implemented because there was too
much output generated for use on a tty, and it scrolled out of reach.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=131707

In the current version, none of these original reasons for `-l` remain.

The logfile is not created by default.  If no log file is specified,
messages are written to stdin [sic]... if and only stdin is a tty.  If
stdin is not a tty, the log defaults to /dev/null.

When a user runs fixfiles on a tty and finds there is too much output, she
is likely to try redirecting standard output and/or standard error using
the shell.  She will find this doesn't help, because fixfiles is writing
the verbose log messages to standard input.

I tried to fix the problem non-intrusively, by changing the default log
file to `/dev/stdout`.  Sadly, this breaks down where you have
`echo >>$LOGFILE "Log message"` inside a specific function, which is run
with output redirected in order to "return" a string value (captured
into a variable).  exclude_dirs_from_relabelling() was such a function.

I was trying to abstract over writing to both normal files and stdout, but
my abstraction "leaks" in a non-obvious way.

There is a simple solution.  We can write the log messages to standard
output.  When we are passed `-l` by a legacy script, we can redirect
standard output to the logfile.

This removes any distinctions between the logfile and "non-log" messages.
Some calls to restorecon were missing redirections to the log file.
"Cleaning out /tmp" was written to the log file, but "Cleaning out labels
on /tmp" was not.  There were no comments to explain these distinctions.

48d425e7c6 policycoreutils: fixfiles: move logit call outside of redirected function
Move call to logit() outside a function which has its output redirected.
See next commit for explanation.

The logit calls are moved into a new function LogExcluded(), similar to
LogReadOnly().  I don't see a pretty way to resolve this, so I just went
for the most explicit approach I could think of.

Behaviour change: diff_filecontext will now log *all* excluded paths.
I think that approach is an improvement, because e.g. the fact that `-C`
mode excludes `/home` was not previouslly documented anywhere.

55f220122f policycoreutils: fixfiles: fix logging about R/O filesystems
The LogReadOnly() call which warns the user about R/O filesystems, applies
to the `-B` mode (newer() function), and the `fixfiles check` mode
(no paths).

Make sure to print it for these modes, and these modes only.

08df753962 policycoreutils: fixfiles: clarify exclude_dirs()
The usage of exclude_dirs() is non-obvious.

It turns out it is only used by the `-C` mode of fixfiles.  The other four
modes use the narrower list generated by exclude_dirs_from_relabelling().
Let's make this distinction more obvious.

(The purpose of the extra exclusions is not clear.  E.g. there's an
exclusion for /dev.  Whereas the `fixfiles check` mode explicitly tells you
that it's going to relabel /dev, without causing any problem.  Maybe that
part is out of date?  But without some explanation of the list, I don't
want to change anything!)

aa62e3665c policycoreutils: fixfiles: remove (broken) redundant code
setfiles is now run with $exclude_dirs.
We shouldn't need to patch the file contexts as well.

This is fortunate, since the file context patching code was broken
(by the same commit which introduced the redundancy).  It takes the
list of directories to exclude from $tempdirs, but $tempdirs is
never set.

Also messages about skipping directories were printed twice.  Firstly when
exclude_dirs is generated, and secondly in the file context patching code.

Also TEMPFCFILE was only removed in one path out of several.

b5610b0c6e Revert "policycoreutils: let output of fixfiles be redirected (as normal)"
This reverts commit ac7899fc3a,
which is not yet part of an officially tagged release
(or release candidate).

`LOGFILE=/proc/self/fd/1` was wrong.

`LOGFILE=$(tty)` was being relied on in one case (exclude_dirs),
to log messages from a function run specifically with stdout redirected
(captured into a variable).

Having `logit "message"` break inside redirected functions
is a nasty leaky abstraction.

This caused e.g. `fixfiles restore` to terminate early with the error

    skipping: No such file or directory

if the user had configured any excluded paths in
/etc/selinux/fixfiles_exclude_dirs
