SELinux Common Intermediate Language (CIL) Compiler

INTRODUCTION

	The SELinux CIL Compiler is a compiler that converts the CIL language as
	described on the CIL design wiki into a kernel binary policy file.
	Please see the CIL Design Wiki at:
	http://github.com/SELinuxProject/cil/wiki/
	for more information about the goals and features on the CIL language.

DEPENDENCIES

	gcc >= 4.5.1
	libsepol-static >= 2.1.4
	lcov >= 1.9
	flex >= 2.5.35


BUILD STEPS

	Open a terminal client and execute the following command to download the source code:

			git clone https://github.com/SELinuxProject/cil.git

	Change directory into the "cil" directory.
	Run "make" with one of the following targets:

	make
		Build the CIL compiler (secilc)

	make unit
		Build the unit_test application to run unit tests

	make coverage
		Build the unit test binary and create coverage reports

	make clean
		Remove temporary build files

	make bare
		Remove temporary build files and compile binaries


USAGE

	Execute 'secilc' with any number of CIL files as arguments. A binary policy and
	file_contexts file will be created.

	Use the '--help' option for more details.


DOCUMENTATION

	There is a Docbook CIL Reference Guide in the docs directory, to build
	this in HTML and PDF format change to the docs directory and run:
		make html pdf

	There is also an secilc man page that can be built with:
		make man

	The documents will be located in the docs/html, docs/pdf and docs/man8
	directories.

	To build the html and manpage the xmlto package is required.
	To build the pdf document the xmlto and dblatex packages are required.


KNOWN ISSUES

	- Blocks inside of macros causes undefined behavior

	- Policy must be well formed. For example, invalid usage of
	  sensitivities/categories/levels may create an unloaded binary

	- Recursive limits are not handled
