2007-02-26Reassign printk levels in selinux kernel codeEric Paris
Below is a patch which demotes many printk lines to KERN_DEBUG from KERN_INFO. It should help stop the spamming of logs with messages in which users are not interested nor is there any action that users should take. It also promotes some KERN_INFO to KERN_ERR such as when there are improper attempts to register/unregister security modules. A similar patch was discussed a while back on list: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=116656343500003&r=1&w=2 This patch addresses almost all of the issues raised. I believe the only advice not taken was in the demoting of messages related to undefined permissions and classes.

2006-12-02Rename class_destroy to avoid namespace conflicts.James Morris
We're seeing increasing namespace conflicts between the global class_destroy() function declared in linux/device.h, and the private function in the SELinux core code. This patch renames the SELinux function to cls_destroy() to avoid this conflict. Acked-by: Stephen Smalley <sds@tycho.nsa.gov> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>
2006-10-11SELinux: Bug fix in polidydb_destroyChad Sellers
This patch fixes two bugs in policydb_destroy. Two list pointers (policydb.ocontexts[i] and policydb.genfs) were not being reset to NULL when the lists they pointed to were being freed. This caused a problem when the initial policy load failed, as the policydb being destroyed was not a temporary new policydb that was thrown away, but rather was the global (active) policydb. Consequently, later functions, particularly sys_bind->selinux_socket_bind->security_node_sid and do_rw_proc->selinux_sysctl->selinux_proc_get_sid->security_genfs_sid tried to dereference memory that had previously been freed.

2006-09-26[PATCH] selinux: add support for range transitions on object classesDarrel Goeddel
Introduces support for policy version 21. This version of the binary kernel policy allows for defining range transitions on security classes other than the process security class. As always, backwards compatibility for older formats is retained. The security class is read in as specified when using the new format, while the "process" security class is assumed when using an older policy format.

2005-10-23[PATCH] selinux: Fix NULL deref in policydb_destroyStephen Smalley
This patch fixes a possible NULL dereference in policydb_destroy, where p->type_attr_map can be NULL if policydb_destroy is called to clean up a partially loaded policy upon an error during policy load.

2005-09-05[PATCH] selinux: Reduce memory use by avtabStephen Smalley
This patch improves memory use by SELinux by both reducing the avtab node size and reducing the number of avtab nodes. The memory savings are substantial, e.g. on a 64-bit system after boot, James Morris reported the following data for the targeted and strict policies: #objs objsize kernmem Targeted: Before: 237888 40 9.1MB After: 19968 24 468KB Strict: Before: 571680 40 21.81MB After: 221052 24 5.06MB The improvement in memory use comes at a cost in the speed of security server computations of access vectors, but these computations are only required on AVC cache misses, and performance measurements by James Morris using a number of benchmarks have shown that the change does not cause any significant degradation. Note that a rebuilt policy via an updated policy toolchain (libsepol/checkpolicy) is required in order to gain the full benefits of this patch, although some memory savings benefits are immediately applied even to older policies (in particular, the reduction in avtab node size). Sources for the updated toolchain are presently available from the sourceforge CVS tree (http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=21266), and tarballs are available from http://www.flux.utah.edu/~sds.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
