    What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

    · Fix 2011/09/25

    · @ Simplify garbage collector.

    · It turned out that use of batched processing tends to choke garbage
    · collector when certain pattern of entries are queued. Thus, I replaced it
    · with sequential processing.

    · Fix 2011/09/16

    · @ Allow specifying domain transition preference.

    · I got an opinion that it is difficult to use exception policy's domain
    · transition control directives because they need to match the pathname
    · specified to "file execute" directives. For example, if "file execute
    · /bin/\*\-ls\-cat" is given, corresponding domain transition control
    · directive needs to be like "no_keep_domain /bin/\*\-ls\-cat from any".

    · To solve this difficulty, I introduced optional argument that supersedes
    · exception policy's domain transition control directives.

    · file execute /bin/ls keep exec.realpath="/bin/ls" exec.argv[0]="ls"
    · file execute /bin/cat keep exec.realpath="/bin/cat" exec.argv[0]="cat"
    · file execute /bin/\*\-ls\-cat child
    · file execute /usr/sbin/httpd exec.realpath="/usr/sbin/httpd" exec.argv[0]="/usr/sbin/httpd"

    · This argument allows transition to different domains based on conditions.

    · /usr/sbin/sshd
    · file execute /bin/bash /usr/sbin/sshd //batch-session exec.argc=2 exec.argv[1]="-c"
    · file execute /bin/bash /usr/sbin/sshd //root-session task.uid=0
    · file execute /bin/bash /usr/sbin/sshd //nonroot-session task.uid!=0
