Tresys Technology already has a working implementation of binary policy
modules, including a module abstraction with a dependency model, a
compiler for generating such modules, and a linker for linking them
together with a "base module". Planned for upstreaming after FC4. See
their prior posts to the selinux list or their web site for info.
This and the reference policy work I just mentioned in another email. As we work
on upstreaming the binary modules we are going to need feedback / testing - if
you are interested in this area I would greatly appreciate any help you can
give.
Thanks,
Karl
