2015-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesPádraig Brady
Run "make update-copyright" and then... * tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year. * tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle-v2.sh: Fix case in copyright message, so that year is updated automatically in future.
2014-01-02maint: fix copyright holder and year in selinux sourcesBernhard Voelker
* src/selinux.c: As the copyright is assigned to the FSF for all of coreutils, replace the copyright holder from "Red Hat, Inc." to "Free Software Foundation, Inc.". Prompted by a warning of 'make update-copyright'. Also update the copyright year.
2013-12-05selinux: fix --context=CTX for cp and diagnose defaultcon() errorsPádraig Brady
* src/selinux.h (ignorable_ctx_err): A new function used to determine if a warning should be given after a call to defaultcon() or restorecon(). * src/cp.c (main): Fix the setfscreatecon() call to use the argument passed by the user. * src/mkdir.c (make_ancestor): Show all but "ignoreable" errors from defaultcon() and restorecon(). * tests/misc/selinux.sh: Add a test run as root in selinux enforcing mode, to ensure cp --context=invalid is honored and fails immediately.
2013-11-27build: avoid more selinux build failuresPádraig Brady
Handle both newer selinux libraries with mode_to_security_class(), and systems without selinux at all. We could easily adjust gnulib to provide the necessary stubs for use by this module, but it's more efficient to just stub out the module completely, when not using selinux. * src/selinux.h: Define stubs for the two module functions, when SELinux is not available. * src/selinux.c: Exclude all logic in preference for the stubs when selinux isn't used. Also when newer selinux libs are used, don't use our conflicting static version of mode_to_security_class(). m4/jm-macros.m4: Check for the system mode_to_security_class().
2013-11-27selinux: a new module implementing "restorecon" functionalityDaniel J Walsh
* src/selinux.c: A new module implementing "restorecon" functionality. There are two main functions to adjust the type of the referenced file system item. defaultcon() will setup the process context so that new items will have the required context without races. This is the preferred method. For existing files, the equivalent restorecon() is available which has two modes. With the "local" parameter set to false, restorecon() will adjust the type according to the system configuration for that file, and set to true will update the context as per the context for the current process (disregarding type). * src/selinux.h: Likewise. * po/POTFILES.in: Reference the new module.
