Merge tag 'selinux-pr-20230829' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux
Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:
"Thirty three SELinux patches, which is a pretty big number for us, but
there isn't really anything scary in here; in fact we actually manage
to remove 10 lines of code with this :)
- Promote the SELinux DEBUG_HASHES macro to CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DEBUG
The DEBUG_HASHES macro was a buried SELinux specific preprocessor
debug macro that was a problem waiting to happen. Promoting the
debug macro to a proper Kconfig setting should help both improve
the visibility of the feature as well enable improved test
coverage. We've moved some additional debug functions under the
CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DEBUG flag and we may see more work in the
future.
- Emit a pr_notice() message if virtual memory is executable by default
As this impacts the SELinux access control policy enforcement, if
the system's configuration is such that virtual memory is
executable by default we print a single line notice to the console.
- Drop avtab_search() in favor of avtab_search_node()
Both functions are nearly identical so we removed avtab_search()
and converted the callers to avtab_search_node().
- Add some SELinux network auditing helpers
The helpers not only reduce a small amount of code duplication, but
they provide an opportunity to improve UDP flood performance
slightly by delaying initialization of the audit data in some
cases.
- Convert GFP_ATOMIC allocators to GFP_KERNEL when reading SELinux policy
There were two SELinux policy load helper functions that were
allocating memory using GFP_ATOMIC, they have been converted to
GFP_KERNEL.
- Quiet a KMSAN warning in selinux_inet_conn_request()
A one-line error path (re)set patch that resolves a KMSAN warning.
It is important to note that this doesn't represent a real bug in
the current code, but it quiets KMSAN and arguably hardens the code
against future changes.
- Cleanup the policy capability accessor functions
This is a follow-up to the patch which reverted SELinux to using a
global selinux_state pointer. This patch cleans up some artifacts
of that change and turns each accessor into a one-line READ_ONCE()
call into the policy capabilities array.
- A number of patches from Christian Göttsche
Christian submitted almost two-thirds of the patches in this pull
request as he worked to harden the SELinux code against type
differences, variable overflows, etc.
- Support for separating early userspace from the kernel in policy,
with a later revert
We did have a patch that added a new userspace initial SID which
would allow SELinux to distinguish between early user processes
created before the initial policy load and the kernel itself.
Unfortunately additional post-merge testing revealed a problematic
interaction with an old SELinux userspace on an old version of
Ubuntu so we've reverted the patch until we can resolve the
compatibility issue.
- Remove some outdated comments dealing with LSM hook registration
When we removed the runtime disable functionality we forgot to
remove some old comments discussing the importance of LSM hook
registration ordering.
- Minor administrative changes
Stephen Smalley updated his email address and "debranded" SELinux
from "NSA SELinux" to simply "SELinux". We've come a long way from
the original NSA submission and I would consider SELinux a true
community project at this point so removing the NSA branding just
makes sense"
