[RFC PATCH v9 01/16] security: add ipe lsm

From: Fan Wu
Date: Mon Jan 30 2023 - 17:58:52 EST


From: Deven Bowers <deven.desai@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Integrity Policy Enforcement (IPE) is an LSM that provides an
complimentary approach to Mandatory Access Control than existing LSMs
today.

Existing LSMs have centered around the concept of access to a resource
should be controlled by the current user's credentials. IPE's approach,
is that access to a resource should be controlled by the system's trust
of a current resource.

The basis of this approach is defining a global policy to specify which
resource can be trusted.

v2:
+ Split evaluation loop, access control hooks,
and evaluation loop from policy parser and userspace
interface to pass mailing list character limit

v3:
+ Move ipe_load_properties to patch 04.
+ Remove useless 0-initializations
+ Prefix extern variables with ipe_
+ Remove kernel module parameters, as these are
exposed through sysctls.
+ Add more prose to the IPE base config option
help text.
+ Use GFP_KERNEL for audit_log_start.
+ Remove unnecessary caching system.
+ Remove comments from headers
+ Use rcu_access_pointer for rcu-pointer null check
+ Remove usage of reqprot; use prot only.
+ Move policy load and activation audit event to 03/12

v4:
+ Remove sysctls in favor of securityfs nodes
+ Re-add kernel module parameters, as these are now
exposed through securityfs.
+ Refactor property audit loop to a separate function.

v5:
+ fix minor grammatical errors
+ do not group rule by curly-brace in audit record,
reconstruct the exact rule.

v6:
+ No changes

v7:
+ Further split lsm creation into a separate commit from the
evaluation loop and audit system, for easier review.

+ Introduce the concept of an ipe_context, a scoped way to
introduce execution policies, used initially for allowing for
kunit tests in isolation.

v8:
+ Follow lsmname_hook_name convention for lsm hooks.
+ Move LSM blob accessors to ipe.c and mark LSM blobs as static.

v9:
+ Remove ipe_context for simplification
