Subject: [PATCH linux-cr] always restore msg_msg label
Date: Tue, 9 Mar 2010 00:13:01 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100309061301.GA21905@us.ibm.com> (raw)

Hi Oren,

In comparing your ckpt-v19-dev-serge branch to my local one I
noticed this patch was missing, then realized I hadn't sent it
separately, but only inline with a response to Nathan.

Please do apply.

Without this patch, selinux labels will not be restored on msg_msg's in
message queues (because we didn't send the restored msg_msg through
msgsnd), and the restored task won't have the permission to receive the
messages.

As I mentioned in that thread, simply re-routing the restored
msg_msg through msgsnd doesn't really suffice because the msg_msg
label is calculated as a product of the msgq and sending task
labels, and the latter may have already changed.

thanks,
-serge
