[Xen-devel] [PATCH] [Xen] [ACM] (revised) Updating a policy on a running system

[Stefan Berger <stefanb@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This is a revised version of the previously posted patch that adds
functionality to allow a policy to be updated on a running system and
domains to be relabeled. The updating of a policy is happening in
several steps: relabeling the domains, testing whether the system would
be in a valid state after the relabeling (according to the policy),
committing the changes if state is determined to be valid.

I have followed Keir's suggestion of building a 2nd linked list parallel
to the domain list. That 2nd list holds security information related to
the running domains. Each entry is pointed to by its domain structure.
The list is protected by its own read/write-lock. I have moved nearly
all ACM-related code that was traversing the domain list previously to
traverse this list instead and not hold onto the domain list lock.
