Hi,

2007/8/25, Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz>:

Key idea of TOMOYO Linux is to let each process to remember the program
(path) name. Names are stored in task struct and "appended" to the list when
execve is called.

An example of /usr/lib/cups/backend/lpd.
(picked up from
http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/cgi-bin/lxr/source/centos4.4/domain_policy.txt?v=policy-s...)

/etc/rc.d/init.d/cups (fork&exec)
 /sbin/initlog (fork&exec)
   /usr/sbin/cupsd (fork&exec)
     /bin/bash (fork&exec)
       /usr/lib/cups/backend/lpd (current process)

SELinux and other DTE implementations need domain definitions to  work.
It is administrators task to design domains and name each domains.
TOMOYO Linux can be used as DTE MAC, but administrators don't
have to define and name domains. Because TOMOYO Linux
automatically defines domains and name them (from booting to
shutdown).

I wrote "TOMOYO Linux can be used as MAC", because
users can just view the domain transitions and analyze systems
with TOMOYO Linux. Or they can use TOMOYO Linux to
get logs with process invocation histories instead of a simple
program name.

TOMOYO Linux policy consists of path names and they are currently
handled as strings.

Thanks.
