the MAC policy modules to improve robustness against C string
bugs and vulnerabilities. Following these revisions, all
string construction of labels for export to userspace (or
elsewhere) is performed using the sbuf API, which prevents
the consumer from having to perform laborious and intricate
pointer and buffer checks. This substantially simplifies
the externalization logic, both at the MAC Framework level,
and in individual policies; this becomes especially useful
when policies export more complex label data, such as with
compartments in Biba and MLS.
Bundled in here are some other minor fixes associated with
externalization: including avoiding malloc while holding the
process mutex in mac_lomac, and hence avoid a failure mode
when printing labels during a downgrade operation due to
the removal of the M_NOWAIT case.
This has been running in the MAC development tree for about
three weeks without problems.

additional flags argument to indicate blocking disposition, and
pass in M_NOWAIT from the IP reassembly code to indicate that
blocking is not OK when labeling a new IP fragment reassembly
queue. This should eliminate some of the WITNESS warnings that
have started popping up since fine-grained IP stack locking
started going in; if memory allocation fails, the creation of
the fragment queue will be aborted.

I was in two minds as to where to put them in the first case..
I should have listenned to the other mind.

doesn't affect users who don't load or explicitly compile in the

unused. Replace it with a dm_mount back-pointer to the struct mount
that the devfs_mount is associated with. Export that pointer to MAC
Framework entry points, where all current policies don't use the
pointer. This permits the SEBSD port of SELinux's FLASK/TE to compile
out-of-the-box on 5.0-CURRENT with full file system labeling support.

wrong, since we don't want the variable changed, but since we assign
it to variables that may also refer to other non-const strings,
warnings were generated that could break LINT.

Control) as a MAC Framework policy module. Unlike the existing
src/sys/security/lomac implementation, this one has its fingers out
of the kernel lock order and doesn't make use of flags in existing
kernel structures. This greatly reduces the quantity of replicated
code with src/sys/kern, simplifies the implementation (3000 vs 8500
lines), and correctes a number of known stability problems with
the existing LOMAC implementation, which will be removed. A bit
more hooking up to do here.
