d21b594518 evm: key must be set once during initialization
On multi-core systems, setting of the key before every caclculation,
causes invalid HMAC calculation for other tfm users, because internal
state (ipad, opad) can be invalid before set key call returns.
It needs to be set only once during initialization.

fb788d8b98 evm: clean verification status
When allocating from slab, initialization is done the first time in
init_once() and subsequently on free.  Because evm_status was not
re-initialized on free, evm_verify_hmac() skipped verifications.

This patch re-initializes evm_status.

566be59ab8 evm: permit mode bits to be updated
Before permitting 'security.evm' to be updated, 'security.evm' must
exist and be valid.  In the case that there are no existing EVM protected
xattrs, it is safe for posix acls to update the mode bits.

To differentiate between no 'security.evm' xattr and no xattrs used to
calculate 'security.evm', this patch defines INTEGRITY_NOXATTR.

bf6d0f5dcd evm: posix acls modify i_mode
The posix xattr acls are 'system' prefixed, which normally would not
affect security.evm.  An interesting side affect of writing posix xattr

1d714057ef evm: remove TCG_TPM dependency
All tristates selected by EVM(boolean) are forced to be builtin, except
in the TCG_TPM(tristate) dependency case. Arnaud Lacombe summarizes the
Kconfig bug as, "So it would seem direct dependency state influence the
state of reverse dependencies.."  For a detailed explanation, refer to
Arnaud Lacombe's posting http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/23/498.

With the "encrypted-keys: remove trusted-keys dependency" patch, EVM
can now be built without a dependency on TCG_TPM.  The trusted-keys
dependency requires trusted-keys to either be builtin or not selected.
This dependency will prevent the boolean/tristate mismatch from
occuring.

dbe5ad17ec evm: add Kconfig TCG_TPM dependency
Although the EVM encrypted-key should be encrypted/decrypted using a
trusted-key, a user-defined key could be used instead. When using a user-
defined key, a TCG_TPM dependency should not be required.  Unfortunately,
the encrypted-key code needs to be refactored a bit in order to remove
this dependency.

This patch adds the TCG_TPM dependency.

6d38ca01c0 evm: evm_verify_hmac must not return INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN
If EVM is not supported or enabled, evm_verify_hmac() returns
INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN, which ima_appraise_measurement() ignores and sets
the appraisal status based solely on the security.ima verification.

evm_verify_hmac() also returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN for other failures, such
as temporary failures like -ENOMEM, resulting in possible attack vectors.
This patch changes the default return code for temporary/unexpected
failures, like -ENOMEM, from INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN to INTEGRITY_FAIL, making
evm_verify_hmac() fail safe.

As a result, failures need to be re-evaluated in order to catch both
temporary errors, such as the -ENOMEM, as well as errors that have been
resolved in fix mode.

6be5cc5246 evm: add support for different security.evm data types
EVM protects a file's security extended attributes(xattrs) against integrity
attacks. The current patchset maintains an HMAC-sha1 value across the security
xattrs, storing the value as the extended attribute 'security.evm'. We
anticipate other methods for protecting the security extended attributes.
This patch reserves the first byte of 'security.evm' as a place holder for
the type of method.

Changelog v6:
- move evm_ima_xattr_type definition to security/integrity/integrity.h
- defined a structure for the EVM xattr called evm_ima_xattr_data
  (based on Serge Hallyn's suggestion)

66dbc325af evm: re-release
EVM protects a file's security extended attributes(xattrs) against integrity
attacks.  This patchset provides the framework and an initial method.  The
initial method maintains an HMAC-sha1 value across the security extended
attributes, storing the HMAC value as the extended attribute 'security.evm'.
Other methods of validating the integrity of a file's metadata will be posted
separately (eg. EVM-digital-signatures).

While this patchset does authenticate the security xattrs, and
cryptographically binds them to the inode, coming extensions will bind other
directory and inode metadata for more complete protection.  To help simplify
the review and upstreaming process, each extension will be posted separately
(eg. IMA-appraisal, IMA-appraisal-directory).  For a general overview of the
proposed Linux integrity subsystem, refer to Dave Safford's whitepaper:
http://downloads.sf.net/project/linux-ima/linux-ima/Integrity_overview.pdf.

EVM depends on the Kernel Key Retention System to provide it with a
trusted/encrypted key for the HMAC-sha1 operation. The key is loaded onto the
root's keyring using keyctl.  Until EVM receives notification that the key has
been successfully loaded onto the keyring (echo 1 > <securityfs>/evm), EVM can
not create or validate the 'security.evm' xattr, but returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN.
Loading the key and signaling EVM should be done as early as possible. Normally
this is done in the initramfs, which has already been measured as part of the
trusted boot.  For more information on creating and loading existing
trusted/encrypted keys, refer to Documentation/keys-trusted-encrypted.txt.  A
sample dracut patch, which loads the trusted/encrypted key and enables EVM, is
available from http://linux-ima.sourceforge.net/#EVM.

Based on the LSMs enabled, the set of EVM protected security xattrs is defined
at compile.  EVM adds the following three calls to the existing security hooks:
evm_inode_setxattr(), evm_inode_post_setxattr(), and evm_inode_removexattr.  To
initialize and update the 'security.evm' extended attribute, EVM defines three
calls: evm_inode_post_init(), evm_inode_post_setattr() and
evm_inode_post_removexattr() hooks.  To verify the integrity of a security
xattr, EVM exports evm_verifyxattr().

Changelog v7:
- Fixed URL in EVM ABI documentation

Changelog v6: (based on Serge Hallyn's review)
- fix URL in patch description
- remove evm_hmac_size definition
- use SHA1_DIGEST_SIZE (removed both MAX_DIGEST_SIZE and evm_hmac_size)
- moved linux include before other includes
- test for crypto_hash_setkey failure
- fail earlier for invalid key
- clear entire encrypted key, even on failure
- check xattr name length before comparing xattr names

Changelog:
- locking based on i_mutex, remove evm_mutex
- using trusted/encrypted keys for storing the EVM key used in the HMAC-sha1
  operation.
- replaced crypto hash with shash (Dmitry Kasatkin)
- support for additional methods of verifying the security xattrs
  (Dmitry Kasatkin)
- iint not allocated for all regular files, but only for those appraised
- Use cap_sys_admin in lieu of cap_mac_admin
- Use __vfs_setxattr_noperm(), without permission checks, from EVM

1adace9bb0 ima: remove unnecessary call to ima_must_measure
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.

867c202654 ima: fix add LSM rule bug
If security_filter_rule_init() doesn't return a rule, then not everything
is as fine as the return code implies.

This bug only occurs when the LSM (eg. SELinux) is disabled at runtime.

Adding an empty LSM rule causes ima_match_rules() to always succeed,
ignoring any remaining rules.

 default IMA TCB policy:
  # PROC_SUPER_MAGIC
  dont_measure fsmagic=0x9fa0
  # SYSFS_MAGIC
  dont_measure fsmagic=0x62656572
  # DEBUGFS_MAGIC
  dont_measure fsmagic=0x64626720
  # TMPFS_MAGIC
  dont_measure fsmagic=0x01021994
  # SECURITYFS_MAGIC
  dont_measure fsmagic=0x73636673

  < LSM specific rule >
  dont_measure obj_type=var_log_t

  measure func=BPRM_CHECK
  measure func=FILE_MMAP mask=MAY_EXEC
  measure func=FILE_CHECK mask=MAY_READ uid=0

Thus without the patch, with the boot parameters 'tcb selinux=0', adding
the above 'dont_measure obj_type=var_log_t' rule to the default IMA TCB
measurement policy, would result in nothing being measured.  The patch
prevents the default TCB policy from being replaced.

bade72d607 IMA: fix the ToMToU logic
Current logic looks like this:

        rc = ima_must_measure(NULL, inode, MAY_READ, FILE_CHECK);
        if (rc < 0)
                goto out;

        if (mode & FMODE_WRITE) {
                if (inode->i_readcount)
                        send_tomtou = true;
                goto out;
        }

        if (atomic_read(&inode->i_writecount) > 0)
                send_writers = true;

Lets assume we have a policy which states that all files opened for read
by root must be measured.

Lets assume the file has permissions 777.

Lets assume that root has the given file open for read.

Lets assume that a non-root process opens the file write.

The non-root process will get to ima_counts_get() and will check the
ima_must_measure().  Since it is not supposed to measure it will goto
out.

We should check the i_readcount no matter what since we might be causing
a ToMToU voilation!

This is close to correct, but still not quite perfect.  The situation
could have been that root, which was interested in the mesurement opened
and closed the file and another process which is not interested in the
measurement is the one holding the i_readcount ATM.  This is just overly
strict on ToMToU violations, which is better than not strict enough...

a178d2027d IMA: move read counter into struct inode
IMA currently allocated an inode integrity structure for every inode in
core.  This stucture is about 120 bytes long.  Most files however
(especially on a system which doesn't make use of IMA) will never need
any of this space.  The problem is that if IMA is enabled we need to
know information about the number of readers and the number of writers
for every inode on the box.  At the moment we collect that information
in the per inode iint structure and waste the rest of the space.  This
patch moves those counters into the struct inode so we can eventually
stop allocating an IMA integrity structure except when absolutely
needed.

This patch does the minimum needed to move the location of the data.
Further cleanups, especially the location of counter updates, may still
be possible.

b9593d309d IMA: use i_writecount rather than a private counter
IMA tracks the number of struct files which are holding a given inode
readonly and the number which are holding the inode write or r/w.  It
needs this information so when a new reader or writer comes in it can
tell if this new file will be able to invalidate results it already made
about existing files.

aka if a task is holding a struct file open RO, IMA measured the file
and recorded those measurements and then a task opens the file RW IMA
needs to note in the logs that the old measurement may not be correct.
It's called a "Time of Measure Time of Use" (ToMToU) issue.  The same is
true is a RO file is opened to an inode which has an open writer.  We
cannot, with any validity, measure the file in question since it could
be changing.

This patch attempts to use the i_writecount field to track writers.  The
i_writecount field actually embeds more information in it's value than
IMA needs but it should work for our purposes and allow us to shrink the
struct inode even more.

ad16ad00c3 IMA: use inode->i_lock to protect read and write counters
Currently IMA used the iint->mutex to protect the i_readcount and
i_writecount.  This patch uses the inode->i_lock since we are going to
start using in inode objects and that is the most appropriate lock.

497f323370 IMA: use unsigned int instead of long for counters
Currently IMA uses 2 longs in struct inode.  To save space (and as it
seems impossible to overflow 32 bits) we switch these to unsigned int.
The switch to unsigned does require slightly different checks for
underflow, but it isn't complex.

b575156daf IMA: drop the inode opencount since it isn't needed for operation
The opencount was used to help debugging to make sure that everything
which created a struct file also correctly made the IMA calls.  Since we
moved all of that into the VFS this isn't as necessary.  We should be
able to get the same amount of debugging out of just the reader and
write count.

8549164143 IMA: use rbtree instead of radix tree for inode information cache
The IMA code needs to store the number of tasks which have an open fd
granting permission to write a file even when IMA is not in use.  It
needs this information in order to be enabled at a later point in time
without losing it's integrity garantees.

At the moment that means we store a little bit of data about every inode
in a cache.  We use a radix tree key'd on the inode's memory address.
Dave Chinner pointed out that a radix tree is a terrible data structure
for such a sparse key space.  This patch switches to using an rbtree
which should be more efficient.

Bug report from Dave:

 "I just noticed that slabtop was reporting an awfully high usage of
  radix tree nodes:

   OBJS ACTIVE  USE OBJ SIZE  SLABS OBJ/SLAB CACHE SIZE NAME
  4200331 2778082  66%    0.55K 144839       29   2317424K radix_tree_node
  2321500 2060290  88%    1.00K  72581       32   2322592K xfs_inode
  2235648 2069791  92%    0.12K  69864       32    279456K iint_cache

  That is, 2.7M radix tree nodes are allocated, and the cache itself is
  consuming 2.3GB of RAM.  I know that the XFS inodei caches are indexed
  by radix tree node, but for 2 million cached inodes that would mean a
  density of 1 inode per radix tree node, which for a system with 16M
  inodes in the filsystems is an impossibly low density.  The worst I've
  seen in a production system like kernel.org is about 20-25% density,
  which would mean about 150-200k radix tree nodes for that many inodes.
  So it's not the inode cache.

  So I looked up what the iint_cache was.  It appears to used for
  storing per-inode IMA information, and uses a radix tree for indexing.
  It uses the *address* of the struct inode as the indexing key.  That
  means the key space is extremely sparse - for XFS the struct inode
  addresses are approximately 1000 bytes apart, which means the closest
  the radix tree index keys get is ~1000.  Which means that there is a
  single entry per radix tree leaf node, so the radix tree is using
  roughly 550 bytes for every 120byte structure being cached.  For the
  above example, it's probably wasting close to 1GB of RAM...."

e950598d43 ima: always maintain counters
commit 8262bb85da allocated the inode integrity struct (iint) before any
inodes were created. Only after IMA was initialized in late_initcall were
the counters updated. This patch updates the counters, whether or not IMA
has been initialized, to resolve 'imbalance' messages.

This patch fixes the bug as reported in bugzilla: 15673.  When the i915
is builtin, the ring_buffer is initialized before IMA, causing the
imbalance message on suspend.

db1afffab0 kref: remove kref_set
Of the three uses of kref_set in the kernel:

 One really should be kref_put as the code is letting go of a
    reference,
 Two really should be kref_init because the kref is being
    initialised.

This suggests that making kref_set available encourages bad code.
So fix the three uses and remove kref_set completely.
