Because the FLASK XSM module no longer checks IS_PRIV for remote domain accesses covered by XSM permissions, domains now have the ability to perform memory management and other functions on all domains that have the same type. While it is possible to prevent this by only creating one domain per type, this solution significantly limits the flexibility of the type system. This patch introduces a domain type transition to represent a domain that is operating on itself. In the example policy, this is demonstrated by creating a type with _self appended when declaring a domain type which will be used for reflexive operations. AVCs for a domain of type domU_t will look like the following: scontext=system_u:system_r:domU_t tcontext=system_u:system_r:domU_t_self This change also allows policy to distinguish between event channels a domain creates to itself and event channels created between domains of the same type. The IS_PRIV_FOR check used for device model domains is also no longer checked by FLASK; a similar transition is performed when the target is set and used when the device model accesses its target domain.

xen-bugtool =========== The xen-bugtool command line application will collate the Xen dmesg output, details of the hardware configuration of your machine, information about the build of Xen that you are using, plus, if you allow it, various logs. The information collated can either be posted to a Xen Bugzilla bug (this bug must already exist in the system, and you must be a registered user there), or it can be saved as a .tar.bz2 for sending or archiving. The collated logs may contain private information, and if you are at all worried about that, you should not use this tool, or you should explicitly exclude those logs from the archive. xen-bugtool is wholly interactive, so simply run it, and answer the questions.
