2011-05-20selinux: avoid unnecessary avc cache stat hit countLinus Torvalds
There is no point in counting hits - we can calculate it from the number of lookups and misses. This makes the avc statistics a bit smaller, and makes the code generation better too. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2011-05-20selinux: de-crapify avc cache stat code generationLinus Torvalds
You can turn off the avc cache stats, but distributions seem to not do that (perhaps because several performance tuning how-to's talk about the avc cache statistics). Which is sad, because the code it generates is truly horrendous, with the statistics update being sandwitched between get_cpu/put_cpu which in turn causes preemption disables etc. We're talking ten+ instructions just to increment a per-cpu variable in some pretty hot code. Fix the craziness by just using 'this_cpu_inc()' instead. Suddenly we only need a single 'inc' instruction to increment the statistics. This is quite noticeable in the incredibly hot avc_has_perm_noaudit() function (which triggers all the statistics by virtue of doing an avc_lookup() call).

Change flex_array_prealloc to take the number of elements for which space should be allocated instead of the last (inclusive) element.

2011-04-28SELinux: pass last path component in may_createEric Paris
New inodes are created in a two stage process. We first will compute the label on a new inode in security_inode_create() and check if the operation is allowed. We will then actually re-compute that same label and apply it in security_inode_init_security(). The change to do new label calculations based in part on the last component of the path name only passed the path component information all the way down the security_inode_init_security hook. Down the security_inode_create hook the path information did not make it past may_create. Thus the two calculations came up differently and the permissions check might not actually be against the label that is created. Pass and use the same information in both places to harmonize the calculations and checks. Reported-by: Dominick Grift <domg472@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>

2011-04-26SELINUX: Make selinux cache VFS RCU walks safeEric Paris
Now that the security modules can decide whether they support the dcache RCU walk or not it's possible to make selinux a bit more RCU friendly. The SELinux AVC and security server access decision code is RCU safe. A specific piece of the LSM audit code may not be RCU safe. This patch makes the VFS RCU walk retry if it would hit the non RCU safe chunk of code. It will normally just work under RCU. This is done simply by passing the VFS RCU state as a flag down into the avc_audit() code and returning ECHILD there if it would have an issue.

2011-04-22SECURITY: Move exec_permission RCU checks into security modulesAndi Kleen
Right now all RCU walks fall back to reference walk when CONFIG_SECURITY is enabled, even though just the standard capability module is active. This is because security_inode_exec_permission unconditionally fails RCU walks. Move this decision to the low level security module. This requires passing the RCU flags down the security hook. This way at least the capability module and a few easy cases in selinux/smack work with RCU walks with CONFIG_SECURITY=y Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2011-03-24userns: security: make capabilities relative to the user namespaceSerge E. Hallyn
- Introduce ns_capable to test for a capability in a non-default user namespace. - Teach cap_capable to handle capabilities in a non-default user namespace. The motivation is to get to the unprivileged creation of new namespaces. It looks like this gets us 90% of the way there, with only potential uid confusion issues left. I still need to handle getting all caps after creation but otherwise I think I have a good starter patch that achieves all of your goals. Changelog: 11/05/2010: [serge] add apparmor 12/14/2010: [serge] fix capabilities to created user namespaces Without this, if user serge creates a user_ns, he won't have capabilities to the user_ns he created. THis is because we were first checking whether his effective caps had the caps he needed and returning -EPERM if not, and THEN checking whether he was the creator. Reverse those checks. 12/16/2010: [serge] security_real_capable needs ns argument in !security case 01/11/2011: [serge] add task_ns_capable helper 01/11/2011: [serge] add nsown_capable() helper per Bastian Blank suggestion 02/16/2011: [serge] fix a logic bug: the root user is always creator of init_user_ns, but should not always have capabilities to it! Fix the check in cap_capable(). 02/21/2011: Add the required user_ns parameter to security_capable, fixing a compile failure. 02/23/2011: Convert some macros to functions as per akpm comments. Some couldn't be converted because we can't easily forward-declare them (they are inline if !SECURITY, extern if SECURITY). Add a current_user_ns function so we can use it in capability.h without #including cred.h. Move all forward declarations together to the top of the #ifdef __KERNEL__ section, and use kernel-doc format. 02/23/2011: Per dhowells, clean up comment in cap_capable(). 02/23/2011: Per akpm, remove unreachable 'return -EPERM' in cap_capable.

2011-03-03LSM: Pass -o remount options to the LSMEric Paris
The VFS mount code passes the mount options to the LSM. The LSM will remove options it understands from the data and the VFS will then pass the remaining options onto the underlying filesystem. This is how options like the SELinux context= work. The problem comes in that -o remount never calls into LSM code. So if you include an LSM specific option it will get passed to the filesystem and will cause the remount to fail. An example of where this is a problem is the 'seclabel' option. The SELinux LSM hook will print this word in /proc/mounts if the filesystem is being labeled using xattrs. If you pass this word on mount it will be silently stripped and ignored. But if you pass this word on remount the LSM never gets called and it will be passed to the FS. The FS doesn't know what seclabel means and thus should fail the mount. For example an ext3 fs mounted over loop # mount -o loop /tmp/fs /mnt/tmp # cat /proc/mounts | grep /mnt/tmp /dev/loop0 /mnt/tmp ext3 rw,seclabel,relatime,errors=continue,barrier=0,data=ordered 0 0 # mount -o remount /mnt/tmp mount: /mnt/tmp not mounted already, or bad option # dmesg EXT3-fs (loop0): error: unrecognized mount option "seclabel" or missing value This patch passes the remount mount options to an new LSM hook.

This reverts commit 242631c49d4cf39642741d6627750151b058233b. Conflicts: security/selinux/hooks.c SELinux used to recognize certain individual ioctls and check permissions based on the knowledge of the individual ioctl. In commit 242631c49d4cf396 the SELinux code stopped trying to understand individual ioctls and to instead looked at the ioctl access bits to determine in we should check read or write for that operation. This same suggestion was made to SMACK (and I believe copied into TOMOYO). But this suggestion is total rubbish. The ioctl access bits are actually the access requirements for the structure being passed into the ioctl, and are completely unrelated to the operation of the ioctl or the object the ioctl is being performed upon. Take FS_IOC_FIEMAP as an example. FS_IOC_FIEMAP is defined as: FS_IOC_FIEMAP _IOWR('f', 11, struct fiemap) So it has access bits R and W. What this really means is that the kernel is going to both read and write to the struct fiemap. It has nothing at all to do with the operations that this ioctl might perform on the file itself!

2011-02-25selinux: Fix packet forwarding checks on postroutingSteffen Klassert
The IPSKB_FORWARDED and IP6SKB_FORWARDED flags are used only in the multicast forwarding case to indicate that a packet looped back after forward. So these flags are not a good indicator for packet forwarding. A better indicator is the incoming interface. If we have no socket context, but an incoming interface and we see the packet in the ip postroute hook, the packet is going to be forwarded. With this patch we use the incoming interface as an indicator on packet forwarding.

2011-02-25selinux: Fix wrong checks for selinux_policycap_netpeerSteffen Klassert
selinux_sock_rcv_skb_compat and selinux_ip_postroute_compat are just called if selinux_policycap_netpeer is not set. However in these functions we check if selinux_policycap_netpeer is set. This leads to some dead code and to the fact that selinux_xfrm_postroute_last is never executed. This patch removes the dead code and the checks for selinux_policycap_netpeer in the compatibility functions.

2011-02-23ima: remove unnecessary call to ima_must_measureMimi Zohar
The original ima_must_measure() function based its results on cached iint information, which required an iint be allocated for all files. Currently, an iint is allocated only for files in policy. As a result, for those files in policy, ima_must_measure() is now called twice: once to determine if the inode is in the measurement policy and, the second time, to determine if it needs to be measured/re-measured. The second call to ima_must_measure() unnecessarily checks to see if the file is in policy. As we already know the file is in policy, this patch removes the second unnecessary call to ima_must_measure(), removes the vestige iint parameter, and just checks the iint directly to determine if the inode has been measured or needs to be measured/re-measured.
