PATCH 1/2 Mark wpa_cli as a commandline utility for admins

The wpa_cli application has two functions within the network manager
environment: (1.) it acts as a commandline interface for administrators to interact with wpa_supplicant, and (2.) it gets called from within init scripts to perform some administrative, unattended tasks.

In this patch, we mark the wpa_cli_t domain as an application domain, introduce a few interfaces to allow roles to run the wpa_cli application, and enhance the wpa_cli_t local policies to reflect its dual use.

This applies to files only (--). However there are also dirs and sock_files labeled wpi_cli_var_run_t. The context of those objects will not be restored as per above file context specification.

Not sure if it applies here but try to be conservative with type transitions. If any of the dir, file, sock_file security classes do no really need to type transition from var_run_t to wpa_cli_var_run_t, then i would not specify a type transition for it.

So if a dir /var/run/wpa-cli-bla gets created in /var/run and files and sock files get created in /var/run/wpa-cli-bla, then there really is no need to add type transition rules for files and sock_files in my view.

+ allow wpa_cli_t etc_t:file { getattr };

you dont need brace extension here because there is nothing to extent. I would however use the getattr_file_perms permissions set for forward compatibility.

In the unlikely scenario that in the future a new av permission is introduced that is required to get attributes, it will be easier to integrate if you consistently use permission sets (single point of entry)

Hmm, on my system, it is only PID files directly in /var/run.

The socket is stored in /tmp (but is written/managed by wpa_supplicant, not wpa_cli).

I'll incorporate the other changes in the next try; if you know of any other locations (fc's) that I need to add in case of Fedora (or other systems), let me know and I'll add them in.

Thats not what your policy says:

+files_pid_filetrans(wpa_cli_t, wpa_cli_var_run_t, { dir file

The above is a type transition for dirs files and for sock_files So there is a conflict there if you ask me.

By the way: type etc_t is declared in the files module and is external to the networkmanager module. You should not make direct references to external types but use interfaces instead.

Allow system administrators to run wpa_cli to interact with wpa_supplicant.
