From 877181a8d9dc663f7a73f77f50af714d7888ec3b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Moore Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2018 21:44:33 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] selinux: fix non-MLS handling in mls_context_to_sid() Commit 95ffe194204a ("selinux: refactor mls_context_to_sid() and make it stricter") inadvertently changed how we handle labels that did not contain MLS information. This patch restores the proper behavior in mls_context_to_sid() and adds a comment explaining the proper behavior to help ensure this doesn't happen again.
