Commit Message

Daniel P. Smith May 31, 2022, 2:56 p.m. UTC
This commit implements full support for starting the idle domain privileged by
introducing a new flask label xenboot_t which the idle domain is labeled with
at creation.  It then provides the implementation for the XSM hook
xsm_set_system_active to relabel the idle domain to the existing xen_t flask
label.

In the reference flask policy a new macro, xen_build_domain(target), is
introduced for creating policies for dom0less/hyperlaunch allowing the
hypervisor to create and assign the necessary resources for domain
construction.

I am still debugging, but I now have a dom0 crashing due to an AVC that
is being tripped with this patch applied to the tip of staging. I just
wanted to give a heads-up, and I will follow back up once I can
determine the root cause.

v/r,

Please ignore and my apologies for the noise. The updated policy file
was not getting synced into the test environment.
