Xen installation with XSM - FLASK enabled

#1 Post by PtiRasta »

Hi folks,

I'm trying to install Xen 4.8.1 on a Jessi (8.8) with the XSM module on.
To get the sources I edited my /etc/apt/sources.list file and added
deb http://ftp.belnet.be/debian/ testing main
deb-src http://ftp.belnet.be/debian/ testing main
apt-get update
apt-get source xen

so I have the sources in the directory 'xen-4.8.1'.

As explained on xen's wiki I modified Config.mk to add XSM_ENABLE ?= y and FLASK_ENABLE ?=y. (https://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_Security_ ... _XSM-FLASK)

After that, I've tried many things :
1. dpkg-buildpackage and dpkg -i ../*.deb
2. make clean, dpkg-buildpackage and dpkg -i
3. make clean, ./configure --enable-xsm --enable-flask, dpkg-buildpackage and dpkg -i

After the installation and reboot, when i try to load Flask policy I always get 'XSM Flask disabled'. :s

Do you know what I'm doing wrong ?

If you want Xen 4.8.1 upgrade Jessie to Stretch and then install the Xen metapackage.

Have you seen? https://manpages.debian.org/testing/x11 ... .1.en.html

Sorry my explanation was not that clear. I don't have any GUI. XSM is a security module for Xen Hypervisor. :)
