new helper: lookup_positive_unlocked()

2019-11-15T18:49:04Z

Most of the callers of lookup_one_len_unlocked() treat negatives are ERR_PTR(-ENOENT). Provide a helper that would do just that. Note that a pinned positive dentry remains positive - it's ->d_inode is stable, etc.; a pinned _negative_ dentry can become positive at any point as long as you are not holding its parent at least shared. So using lookup_one_len_unlocked() needs to be careful; lookup_positive_unlocked() is safer and that's what the callers end up open-coding anyway. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

Pull kernel lockdown mode from James Morris: "This is the latest iteration of the kernel lockdown patchset, from Matthew Garrett, David Howells and others. From the original description: This patchset introduces an optional kernel lockdown feature, intended to strengthen the boundary between UID 0 and the kernel. When enabled, various pieces of kernel functionality are restricted. Applications that rely on low-level access to either hardware or the kernel may cease working as a result - therefore this should not be enabled without appropriate evaluation beforehand. The majority of mainstream distributions have been carrying variants of this patchset for many years now, so there's value in providing a doesn't meet every distribution requirement, but gets us much closer to not requiring external patches. There are two major changes since this was last proposed for mainline: - Separating lockdown from EFI secure boot. Background discussion is covered here: https://lwn.net/Articles/751061/ - Implementation as an LSM, with a default stackable lockdown LSM module. This allows the lockdown feature to be policy-driven, rather than encoding an implicit policy within the mechanism. The new locked_down LSM hook is provided to allow LSMs to make a policy decision around whether kernel functionality that would allow tampering with or examining the runtime state of the kernel should be permitted. The included lockdown LSM provides an implementation with a simple policy intended for general purpose use. This policy provides a coarse level of granularity, controllable via the kernel command line: lockdown={integrity|confidentiality} Enable the kernel lockdown feature. If set to integrity, kernel features that allow userland to modify the running kernel are disabled. If set to confidentiality, kernel features that allow userland to extract confidential information from the kernel are also disabled. This may also be controlled via /sys/kernel/security/lockdown and overriden by kernel configuration. New or existing LSMs may implement finer-grained controls of the lockdown features. Refer to the lockdown_reason documentation in include/linux/security.h for details. The lockdown feature has had signficant design feedback and review across many subsystems. This code has been in linux-next for some weeks, with a few fixes applied along the way.

debugfs: Restrict debugfs when the kernel is locked down

2019-08-20T04:54:17Z

Disallow opening of debugfs files that might be used to muck around when the kernel is locked down as various drivers give raw access to hardware through debugfs. Given the effort of auditing all 2000 or so files and manually fixing each one as necessary, I've chosen to apply a heuristic instead. The following changes are made: (1) chmod and chown are disallowed on debugfs objects (though the root dir can be modified by mount and remount, but I'm not worried about that). (2) When the kernel is locked down, only files with the following criteria are permitted to be opened: - The file must have mode 00444 - The file must not have ioctl methods - The file must not have mmap (3) When the kernel is locked down, files may only be opened for reading. Normal device interaction should be done through configfs, sysfs or a miscdev, not debugfs. Note that this makes it unnecessary to specifically lock down show_dsts(), show_devs() and show_call() in the asus-wmi driver. I would actually prefer to lock down all files by default and have the the files unlocked by the creator. This is tricky to manage correctly, though, as there are 19 creation functions and ~1600 call sites (some of them in loops scanning tables).

debugfs: log errors when something goes wrong

2019-07-03T14:55:51Z

As it is not recommended that debugfs calls be checked, it was pointed out that major errors should still be logged somewhere so that developers and users have a chance to figure out what went wrong. To help with this, error logging has been added to the debugfs core so that it is not needed to be present in every individual file that calls debugfs.
