Subject: [PATCH 0/2] checkmodule: allow building modules of a specific version
Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2019 17:37:29 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190417163731.3434-1-gary.tierney@fastmail.com> (raw)

These changes come from a report by a user on the Freenode IRC channel that
they were unable to build policies for a machine that has an older version of
libsepol installed.

A new `-c` option that mirrors checkpolicy's own has been added to checkmodule,
and the output of a simple test is shown below:

$ cat > test.te <<EOF
module test 1.0;

require {
    type domain;
    type file_type;
    class file { read write };
}

allow domain file_type : file { read write };
EOF
$ obj/usr/bin/checkmodule -m -M -c 10 -o test.mod test.te
$ checkpolicy/test/dismod test.mod
Reading policy...
... snip ...
Binary policy module file loaded.
Module name: test
Module version: 1.0
Policy version: 10

Worthy of note, however, is that these policy version numbers differ from those
used by the kernel policy format.

Gary Tierney (2):
  checkmodule: add support for specifying module policy version
  dismod: print policy version of loaded modules
