git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/security-testing-2.6 * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/security-testing-2.6: keys: don't need to use RCU in keyring_read() as semaphore is held
2010-04-27keys: the request_key() syscall should link an existing key to the dest keyringDavid Howells
The request_key() system call and request_key_and_link() should make a link from an existing key to the destination keyring (if supplied), not just from a new key to the destination keyring. This can be tested by: ring=`keyctl newring fred @s` keyctl request2 user debug:a a keyctl request user debug:a $ring keyctl list $ring If it says: keyring is empty then it didn't work. If it shows something like: 1 key in keyring: 1070462727: --alswrv 0 0 user: debug:a then it did. request_key() system call is meant to recursively search all your keyrings for the key you desire, and, optionally, if it doesn't exist, call out to userspace to create one for you. If request_key() finds or creates a key, it should, optionally, create a link to that key from the destination keyring specified. Therefore, if, after a successful call to request_key() with a desination keyring specified, you see the destination keyring empty, the code didn't work correctly. If you see the found key in the keyring, then it did - which is what the patch is required for.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-02-24Security: add static to security_ops and default_security_ops variablewzt.wzt@gmail.com
Enhance the security framework to support resetting the active security module. This eliminates the need for direct use of the security_ops and default_security_ops variables outside of security.c, so make security_ops and default_security_ops static. Also remove the secondary_ops variable as a cleanup since there is no use for that. secondary_ops was originally used by SELinux to call the "secondary" security module (capability or dummy), but that was replaced by direct calls to capability and the only remaining use is to save and restore the original security ops pointer value if SELinux is disabled by early userspace based on /etc/selinux/config. Further, if we support this directly in the security framework, then we can just use &default_security_ops for this purpose since that is now available.

2010-02-07ima: initialize ima before inodes can be allocatedEric Paris
ima wants to create an inode information struct (iint) when inodes are allocated. This means that at least the part of ima which does this allocation (the allocation is filled with information later) should before any inodes are created. To accomplish this we split the ima initialization routine placing the kmem cache allocator inside a security_initcall() function. Since this makes use of radix trees we also need to make sure that is initialized before security_initcall().

The counters are now updated independently, from measuring the file, in __dentry_open() and alloc_file() by calling ima_counts_get(). ima_path_check() is called from nfsd and do_filp_open(). It also did not measure all files that should have been measured. Reason: ima_path_check() got bogus value passed as mask.

2010-02-04selinux: load the initial SIDs upon every policy loadGuido Trentalancia
Always load the initial SIDs, even in the case of a policy reload and not just at the initial policy load. This comes particularly handy after the introduction of a recent patch for enabling runtime switching between different policy types, although this patch is in theory independent from that feature.

2010-01-27TOMOYO: Remove usage counter for temporary memory.Tetsuo Handa
TOMOYO was using own memory usage counter for detecting memory leak. But as kernel 2.6.31 introduced memory leak detection mechanism ( CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK ), we no longer need to have own counter. We remove usage counter for memory used for permission checks, but we keep usage counter for memory used for policy so that we can apply quota.

2010-01-25selinux: remove dead code in type_attribute_bounds_av()KaiGai Kohei
This patch removes dead code in type_attribute_bounds_av(). Due to the historical reason, the type boundary feature is delivered from hierarchical types in libsepol, it has supported boundary features both of subject type (domain; in most cases) and target type. However, we don't have any actual use cases in bounded target types, and it tended to make conceptual confusion. So, this patch removes the dead code to apply boundary checks on the target types. I makes clear the TYPEBOUNDS restricts privileges of a certain domain bounded to any other domain.

2010-01-25selinux: convert range transition list to a hashtabStephen Smalley
Per https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=548145 there are sufficient range transition rules in modern (Fedora) policy to make mls_compute_sid a significant factor on the shmem file setup path due to the length of the range_tr list. Replace the simple range_tr list with a hashtab inside the security server to help mitigate this problem. Signed-off-by: Stephen D.
