Upgrade Instructions for OpenBSM
--------------------------------
Currently this is very straight forward:
OpenBSM integrates into the FreeBSD source tree in several places:
src/contrib/openbsm The OpenBSM distribution itself
src/sys/bsm Modified versions of some bsm/ include files
src/sys/security/audit Kernel audit framework, some OpenBSM-based files
src/usr.sbin/*audit* Makefiles for various OpenBSM tools
src/etc/Makefile Installation of /etc OpenBSM files
src/lib/libbsm/* Build for OpenBSM library
OpenBSM is normally built using an integrated autoconf/automake build
system. For the purposes of tight integration with FreeBSD, we use an
adapted BSD make (bmake) build system loosely based on the autmake
setup. We also rely on a static config.h generated when OpenBSM is
imported, rather than re-configuring every build. This leads to a
more reproduceable build environment, and avoids dependence on things
not in the base tree (i.e., autoconf, automake, GNU make, etc). An
upgrade of OpenBSM generally involves the following steps:
- Vendor import of OpenBSM into src/contrib.
- Run configure, commit src/contrib/openbsm/config/config.h.
- Replication of src/contrib/openbsm/bsm changes into src/sys/bsm.
- Possible updates to src/sys/security/audit, especially relating to
bsm_token.c.
- Update any library, tool, or etc BSD Makefiles to add new files,
defines, or other generally useful or necessary things.
Normally, the CVS vendor import goes along the following lines:
cd ~/p4/projects/trustedbsd/openbsm
cvs -d rwatson@repoman.FreeBSD.org:/home/ncvs -q import src/contrib/openbsm \

Replacing the version string as required. Use the "-n" argument to CVS to
do a test run.
Right now, no local FreeBSD modification or configuration is required. In
future OpenBSM versions, this is likely to change.
After importing OpenBSM, make sure to propagate any changes to files that
appear in both contrib/openbsm/bsm and sys/bsm.
Propagation of changes to src/sys/{bsm,security/audit} is something that
requires careful coordination and attention to detail. These files are
not on CVS vendor branches, but do have the same local vs. vendor merge
issues.
