Until the policy is loaded, the security server allows all permissions. See security/selinux/ss/services.c:security_compute_av(), the !ss_initialized case. So, no, you won't get any avc denials before loading policy. The security server resets the AVC upon policy loads, so any permissions cached before loading policy will be flushed upon the first policy load and rechecked on subsequent operations. _______________________________________________ Seandroid-list mailing list Seandroid-list@tycho.nsa.gov To unsubscribe, send email to seandroid-list-le...@tycho.nsa.gov.
