Zdenek Pytela d0c8cc2186 Change the selinuxuser_execstack boolean value to true
With the d5bb233ea2 ("Do not change selinuxuser_execmod and
selinuxuser_execstack") commit, the default "off" value of
selinuxuser_execmod and selinuxuser_execstack booleans stopped
being switched to "on" by the selinux-policy package build configuration
to keep their default "off" value.

It turned out subsequently the execstack permission is required by some
tools like virt-v2v or when packages like glibc or binutils are rebuilt.
It is also needed by many 3rd party software packages.
As a result, the value of selinuxuser_execstack needs to be changed
to "on" again.

Purpose

SELinux Fedora Policy is a fork of the SELinux reference policy. The fedora-selinux/selinux-policy repo makes Fedora packaging simpler and more transparent for packagers, upstream developers, and users. It is used for applying downstream Fedora fixes, for communication about proposed/committed changes, and for communication with upstream and the community. It reflects the upstream repository structure to make submitting patches to upstream easy.

Structure

GitHub

On GitHub, we have one repository containing the policy sources.

$ cd selinux-policy
$ git remote -v
origin	git@github.com:fedora-selinux/selinux-policy.git (fetch)

$ git branch -r
origin/HEAD -> origin/master
origin/f27
origin/f28
origin/master
origin/rawhide

Note: As opposed to dist-git, the Rawhide content resides in the rawhide branch rather than master.

dist-git

Package sources in dist-git are composed from the selinux-policy repository snapshot tarball, container-selinux policy files snapshot, the macro-expander script snapshot, and from other config files.

Build process

  1. Clone the fedora-selinux/selinux-policy repository.

     $ cd ~/devel/github
     $ git clone git@github.com:fedora-selinux/selinux-policy.git
     $ cd selinux-policy
    
  2. Create, backport, or cherry-pick needed changes to a particular branch and push them.

  3. Clone the selinux-policy dist-git repository.

     $ cd ~/devel/dist-git
     $ fedpkg clone selinux-policy
     $ cd selinux-policy
    
  4. Download the latest snapshot from the selinux-policy GitHub repository.

     $ ./make-rhat-patches.sh
    
  5. Add changes to the dist-git repository, bump release, create a changelog entry, commit, and push.

  6. Build the package.

     $ fedpkg build
