Re: Cil Macros

[Dan <dtdevore64@yahoo.com>]

Sorry for replying again but I wanted to paste my code in case anyone 
wanted to see an example of a process transition with a domain using a 
macro.

(macro domain_auto_trans ((type ARG1) (type ARG2) (type ARG3))
    (allow ARG1 ARG2 (file (read getattr execute open)))
    (allow ARG1 ARG3 (process (transition)))
    (allow ARG3 ARG2 (file (ioctl entrypoint read getattr lock execute 
execute_no_trans open)))
    (typetransition ARG1 ARG2 process ARG3)
)

(call domain_trans (staff_t mytest_exec_t mytest_t))
