  To: selinux; +Cc: cpebenito, dwalsh

This is a simple RFC patch for the Reference Policy to go along with the
proposed NetLabel kernel changes to use the netmsg initial SID, the kernel
change thread can be found here:

 * http://marc.info/?t=117394234100037&r=1&w=2

The basic idea is that NetLabel would use the netmsg initial SID as the
base/TE context for MLS-only connections and the unlabeled SID for
connections that did not have have security attributes at all, true
unlabeled connections.  The reason for doing this would be to enable us
to allow/disallow unlabeled NetLabel traffic on a per-domain basis;
something that is not easily possible with the current approach of using
the unlabeled SID as the base/TE context for MLS-only connections.

I don't consider the changes below to be complete, there would still need
to be changes to all of the user and application domains, but I want to
start a conversation on the "right" way to do this.  Chris, Dan, I'm
especially interested in what the two of you have to say.

FYI: This _really_ is a RFC patch, I haven't even compile tested it, I'm
just using it as a starting point for the conversation.

The type declaration and initial sid line should move over to
corenetwork (with corresponding interface changes).  The only reason
there were netlabel interfaces in the kernel module were because they
were using unlabeled_t.

Okay, that makes sense.

I still have a question about the best way to provide both labeled and 
unlabeled NetLabel support to all of the user/application domains in the 
policy.  I don't have a problem going through all the individual domains and 
adding calls like these:

  corenet_{tcp,udp,raw}_recv_unlabeled(<domain>)
  corenet_{tcp,udp,raw}_recv_netlabel(<domain>)

... but I was wondering if there was another way I should go about making the 
change?

No, that's the right method.  I've been thinking about if this is the
right vocabulary for the interfaces; I'd like to make it workable for
labeled ipsec too.  The problem is that ipsec is a little different,
where you might have interfaces like apache_tcp_recvfrom_user_script().

Yes, especially for the unlabeled case.  I would think having a single 
interface to allow a domain to receive unlabeled traffic would be much better 
than two.

Yes, you also have all the SPD matching issues to deal with.  Hopefully later 
this year I'll have NetLabel supporting full SELinux contexts which should 
make NetLabel and IPsec very similar in regards to packet subject/object 
labels; the class/permissions will still be different but that is more of an 
interface implementation issue than an actual interface/API issue.

Thanks for you help, I'll hope to have a patch for you to review within a week 
or two that adds the corenet/NetLabel interfaces to the policy in SVN.  I'd 
like to get this accepted and merged before I push the final kernel patch up 
to James/Stephen as the kernel changes require a new/updated policy to work 
correctly.
