Smack: create a sysfs mount point for smackfs

2012-12-14T18:57:23Z

There are a number of "conventions" for where to put LSM filesystems. Smack adheres to none of them. Create a mount point at /sys/fs/smackfs for mounting smackfs so that Smack can be conventional. Targeted for git://git.gitorious.org/smack-next/kernel.git Signed-off-by: Casey Schaufler

Smack: use select not depends in Kconfig

2012-12-14T18:57:10Z

The components NETLABEL and SECURITY_NETWORK are required by Smack. Using "depends" in Kconfig hides the Smack option if the user hasn't figured out that they need to be enabled while using make menuconfig. Using select is a better choice. Because select is not recursive depends on NET and SECURITY are added. The reflects similar usage in TOMOYO and AppArmor.

Smack: setprocattr memory leak fix

2012-09-18T16:51:06Z

The data structure allocations being done in prepare_creds are duplicated in smack_setprocattr. This results in the structure allocated in prepare_creds being orphaned and never freed. The duplicate code is removed from smack_setprocattr. Targeted for git://git.gitorious.org/smack-next/kernel.git Signed-off-by: Casey Schaufler

Smack: implement revoking all rules for a subject label

2012-09-18T16:50:52Z

Add /smack/revoke-subject special file. Writing a SMACK label to this file will set the access to '-' for all access rules with that subject label. Targeted for git://git.gitorious.org/smack-next/kernel.git Signed-off-by: Rafal Krypa

Smack: remove task_wait() hook.

Allow SIGCHLD to be passed to child process without explicit policy. This will help to keep the access control policy simple and easily maintainable with complex applications that require use of multiple security contexts. It will also help to keep them as isolated as possible.

smack: off by one error

2012-07-30T05:04:17Z

Consider the input case of a rule that consists entirely of non space symbols followed by a \0. Say 64 + \0 In this case strlen(data) = 64 kzalloc of subject and object are 64 byte objects sscanfdata, "%s %s %s", subject, ...) will put 65 bytes into subject.

Smack: don't show empty rules when /smack/load or /smack/load2 is read

2012-07-13T22:49:24Z

This patch removes empty rules (i.e. with access set to '-') from the rule list presented to user space. Smack by design never removes labels nor rules from its lists. Access for a rule may be set to '-' to effectively disable it. Such rules would show up in the listing generated when /smack/load or /smack/load2 is read. This may cause clutter if many rules were disabled. As a rule with access set to '-' is equivalent to no rule at all, they may be safely hidden from the listing.

Smack: user access check bounds

2012-07-13T22:49:24Z

Some of the bounds checking used on the /smack/access interface was lost when support for long labels was added. No kernel access checks are affected, however this is a case where /smack/access could be used incorrectly and fail to detect the error. This patch reintroduces the original checks.
