  • This patch adds SELinux support for the KOBJECT_UEVENT Netlink family, so
    that SELinux can apply finer grained controls to it. For example, security
    policy for hald can be locked down to the KOBJECT_UEVENT Netlink family
    only. Currently, this family simply defaults to the default Netlink socket
    class.

    Note that some new permission definitions are added to sync with changes in
    the core userspace policy package, which auto-generates header files.

  • This patch fixes a bug in the SELinux Netlink message type detection code,
    where the wrong constant was being used in a case statement. The incorrect
    value is not valid for this class of object so it would not have been
    reached, and fallen through to a default handler for all Netlink messages.

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
