Any chance you're planning on using Roberto's patches for including security xattrs in the initramfs?[1] Any help reviewing his patches would be much appreciated! thanks, Mimi [1] https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-initramfs/msg04771.html

I would love to help, but given my current workload I'm not sure how timely the review would be, I would suggest reaching out to the distributions who maintain the userspace (and have asked for this feature).

I was wondering if "help enable some new system concepts which dynamically create the root filesystem in the initrd" adds SELinux labels on the root filesystem. Mimi

Once again, that is more of a distro specific question. -- paul moore www.paul-moore.com

If recent changes allow file labeling before the SELinux policy is loaded, I think it would help the mechanism I developed. The SELinux label, IMA/EVM signature can be included in the ram disk (standard CPIO image), in a special file named METADATA!!! that follows the file xattrs are applied to. Roberto
Hi Linus, Only three SELinux patches for v5.5, all passing the test suite and listed below, please merge them for v5.5. - Remove the size limit on SELinux policies, the limitation was a lingering vestige and no longer necessary. - Allow file labeling before the policy is loaded. This should ease some of the burden when the policy is initially loaded (no need to relabel files), but it should also help enable some new system concepts which dynamically create the root filesystem in the initrd. - Add support for the "greatest lower bound" policy construct which is defined as the intersection of the MLS range of two SELinux labels.
