    Clean up socket rules. · 16011320
    Stephen Smalley authored
    
    Replace * or any permission set containing create with
    create_socket_perms or create_stream_socket_perms.
    
    Add net_domain() to all domains using network sockets and
    delete rules already covered by domain.te or net.te.
    
    For netlink_route_socket, only nlmsg_write needs to be separately
    granted to specific domains that are permitted to modify the routing
    table.   Clarification:  read/write permissions are just ability to
    perform read/recv() or write/send() on the socket, whereas nlmsg_read/
    nlmsg_write permissions control ability to observe or modify the
    underlying kernel state accessed via the socket.
    See security/selinux/nlmsgtab.c in the kernel for the mapping of
    netlink message types to nlmsg_read or nlmsg_write.
    
    Delete legacy rule for b/12061011.
    
    This change does not touch any rules where only read/write were allowed
    to a socket created by another domain (inherited across exec or
    received across socket or binder IPC).  We may wish to rewrite some or all
    of those rules with the rw_socket_perms macro but that is a separate
    change.
