Hello, I have tested this new version and it worked quite fine on my system. It also builds without any trouble on Travis-CI (https://travis-ci.org/fishilico/selinux/builds/213586224). After performing some tests, I quickly read the CIL policy generated with "checkpolicy -bC" and found: (booleanif (and git_cgi_enable_homedirs use_nfs_home_dirs) (true (allow httpd_git_script_t nfs_t (dir (getattr search open))) (allow httpd_git_script_t nfs_t (dir (ioctl read getattr lock search open))) (allow httpd_git_script_t nfs_t (dir (ioctl read getattr lock search open))) (allow httpd_git_script_t nfs_t (file (ioctl read getattr lock open))) (allow httpd_git_script_t nfs_t (filesystem (getattr))) ) (false (dontaudit httpd_git_script_t nfs_t (file (ioctl read getattr lock open))) ) ) There is a missing "\n" after "(false" on line 2059 of kernel_to_cil.c (function write_cond_nodes_to_cil). Moreover when trying to compile with secilc the resulting file, I get "Bad userrange declaration" on a line which contains "(userrange root systemlow systemlow)" (this is a non-MLS policy). There are missing parentheses around the levels when generating userrange statements in write_user_decl_rules_to_cil(). By iterating cycles of secilc and checkpolicy -bC, it appears that the roletypes statements get generated with alphabetical order of roles, but a random order for types (which is the order in the binary policy file if I understand the code correctly). Would it be possible to sort them in alphabetical order too? I guess a "struct strs"-based construction similar to what write_cond_av_list_to_cil() does can be used, even though I have not taken time to test this yet.
