nk-psl-gen-c

The nk-psl-gen-c compiler generates the source code of the Kaspersky Security System security module based on the solution security policy file (security.psl) and the EDL descriptions of process classes included in the solution. This code is used by the makekss script.

The nk-psl-gen-c compiler also lets you generate and run code of test scenarios written in the PAL language for the solution security policy.

Syntax for using the nk-psl-gen-c compiler:

Parameters:

• FILE

  Path to the PSL description of the solution security policy (security.psl)

• -I,--include-dir PATH

  Path to the folder containing auxiliary files required for generating transport methods and types. By default, these files are located in the folder: /opt/KasperskyOS-Community-Edition-<version>/sysroot-arm-kos/include.

  The nk-psl-gen-c compiler will require access to all EDL descriptions of process classes listed in the security configuration, and will require access to the CDL- or IDL descriptions of their components and interfaces. To enable the nk-psl-gen-c compiler to find these descriptions, you need to pass the paths to these descriptions using the -I switch.

  To indicate more than one folder. you can use several -I switches.

• -o,--output PATH

  Path to the created file containing the security module code.

• -t, --tests ARG

  Flag for controlling code generation and starting test scenarios for the solution security policy. Possible values:

  • skip – code of test scenarios is not generated. This value is used by default if the --tests flag is not indicated.
  • generate – code of test scenarios is generated but is not compiled and is not executed.
  • run – code of test scenarios is generated, compiled using the gcc compiler, and executed.
• -a, --audit PATH

  Path to the created file containing the code of the audit decoder.

• -h, --help

  Displays the Help text.

• --version

  Displays the nk-psl-gen-c version.
