I just looked over the patch. This new version with row-level SQL
security has certainly reduced the SE-Linux-specific part, which is
good.
It was interesting how you implemented SQL-level column-level
permissions:
CREATE TABLE customer ( cid integer primary key, cname varchar(32), credit varchar(32)
SECURITY_CONTEXT= 'system_u:object_r:sepgsql_secret_table_t');
I am unclear how that will behave with the column-level permissions
patch someone is working on. I am wondering if your approach is clearer
than the other patch because it gives a consistent right policy for rows
and columns.
I was wondering why you mention the NSA (U.S. National Security Agency)
in the patch?
+# NSA SELinux support
The size of the patch is still larger but I don't see any way to reduce it:
