Domain transition not working

[Nabeel Moidu]

Hi

I've got an executable file script.sh labeled xyz_exec_t. I've also defined
a domain xyz_t  and added daemon_domain(xyz_t, xyz_exec_t) in the .te file.
When compiled and inserted, the file context labels seem to be enforced
correctly. Normally the executable script.sh is invoked by the init
scripts. As per the domain transition rule, I expect it show up xyz_t as
its domain in ps -efZ . But the transition does not work as expected. The
process runs as an unconfined domain.

But when I add runcon in the line where the init script invokes the
executable with the domain as xyz_t, the process runs in the proper context.

Once I remove the runcon and invoke the init script, the domain transition
I applied in the custom module does not work out.

Any suggestions ?

NB: The system is on permissive mode and this particular domain xyz_t has
also been defined as a permissive domain.
