Hello, This patch series is one part of the changes needed to bring minimal SELinux support to OpenWrt. SELinux is a mandatory access control Linux security module, which I assume most if not all OpenWrt users are already familiar with. The work presented in these patch series presents a minimal integration, in the sense that it allows to:
(1) Build all the important SELinux components, both on the build system (for example to compile a SELinux policy) and on the target system (libselinux, policy management tools, etc.) (2) Set the SELinux security contexts on the files in the filesystem image generated by OpenWrt. (3) Compile the SELinux policy on the build machine, and integrate the compiled SELinux policy in the target filesystem. (4) Load at boot time the SELinux policy and enable it. The provided SELinux policy is the default SELinux policy from the upstream project: it has not been tuned specifically for OpenWrt. There are two patch series for this work: - One for OpenWrt itself (this patch series) - One for the OpenWrt packages feed OpenWrt changes =============== This patch series brings the following changes: - Allow to build Busybox with SELinux support, mainly to get -Z option support in several commands. This requires linking against libselinux, which is provided in the packages feeds as part of the second patch series. - Addition of minimal SELinux support in procd, to load the SELinux policy at boot time. The patch has been submitted separately to procd, and is being discussed. - Addition of the fakeroot tool, which we need when generating the filesystem image to run the SELinux command "setfiles" that sets the appropriate security context for the files in the filesystem. It obviously requires root access, which is why it is executed under fakeroot. - Addition of support for generating a SquashFS image with the SELinux security contexts defined. It could be extended to other filesystem formats of course. - Add some logic to be able to enable SquashFS extended attribute support in the kernel configuration, as well as SELinux support. - Enable extended attribute support in mksquashfs. OpenWrt packages feed changes ============================= This patch series brings new packages for the different user-space components of SELinux and their dependencies: - libsepol - libselinux, including its Python bindings - audit - libcap-ng - libsemanage - policycoreutils - checkpolicy - refpolicy - selinux-python These are pretty regular packages. I'm looking forward to the feedback of the OpenWrt community on this proposal.
