James Carter 2d49a4b41c libsepol/cil: Create new keep field for type attribute sets
Daniel Cashman <dcashman@android.com> discovered the following:
When using cil_db multiple_decls, the different cil_attribute nodes
all point to the same underlying cil_attribute struct.  This leads
to problems, though, when modifying the used value in the struct.
__cil_post_db_attr() changes the value of the field to based on
the output of cil_typeattribute_used(), for use later in
cil_typeattribute_to_policydb and cil_typeattribute_to_bitmap, but
due to the multiple declarations, cil_typeattribute_used() could be
called again by a second node.  In this second call, the value used
is the modifed value of CIL_TRUE or CIL_FALSE, not the flags actually
needed. This could result in the field being reset again, to an
incorrect CIL_FALSE value.

Add the field "keep" to struct cil_typeattributeset, set its value
using cil_typeattribute_used(), and use it when determining whether
the attribute is to be kept or if it should be expanded.

To build and install everything under a private directory, run:
make DESTDIR=~/obj install install-pywrap

To install as the default system libraries and binaries
(overwriting any previously installed ones - dangerous!),
on x86_64, run:
make LIBDIR=/usr/lib64 SHLIBDIR=/lib64 install install-pywrap relabel
or on x86 (32-bit), run:
make install install-pywrap relabel

This may render your system unusable if the upstream SELinux userspace
lacks library functions or other dependencies relied upon by your
distribution.  If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces.

To install libsepol on macOS (mainly for policy analysis):
cd libsepol; make DESTDIR=/usr/local PREFIX=/usr/local install

This requires GNU coreutils (brew install coreutils).
