Subject: [PATCH v5 1/4] IMA: Add func to measure LSM state and policy

Critical data structures of security modules need to be measured to
enable an attestation service to verify if the configuration and
policies for the security modules have been setup correctly and
that they haven't been tampered with at runtime. A new IMA policy is
required for handling this measurement.

Define two new IMA policy func namely LSM_STATE and LSM_POLICY to
measure the state and the policy provided by the security modules.
Update ima_match_rules() and ima_validate_rule() to check for
the new func and ima_parse_rule() to handle the new func.

This patch generally looks really good to me with the exception of one
thing...

We should only accept rules with these specified hook functions when an
LSM that has measurement support is enabled. This messes up the ordering
of your patch series but it could be as simple as doing this:

else if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX) &&
strcmp(args[0].from, "LSM_STATE") == 0)
entry->func = LSM_STATE;

Or you could do something a little more complex, like what's done with
CONFIG_IMA_LSM_RULES. You could create a CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_LSM option
that's default enabled but depends on CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX and then
check for IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_LSM) in ima_parse_rule().

I'd personally opt for just placing the
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX) check directly into
ima_parse_rule().

The LSM hook can be used by any security module (not just SELinux) to
measure their data.

I have implemented measurement in SELinux to illustrate the usage.
Maybe, I can add the check you have suggested for now and when more
security modules start using this IMA policy additional checks can be
added as appropriate.

Yes, that's what I envision.

The main idea is that there's negative feedback to userspace when IMA
can't possibly do anything with an LSM_STATE/LSM_POLICY rule.

If, as you suggest below, this is SELinux specific,
these should be SELINUX_STATE and SELINUX_POLICY.
It makes me very uncomfortable when I see LSM used
in cases where SELinux is required. The LSM is supposed
to be an agnostic interface, so if you need to throw

if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX) &&

into the IMA code you're clearly not thinking in terms
of the LSM layer. I have no problem with seeing SELinux
oriented and/or specific code in IMA if that's what you want.
Just don't call it LSM.

The hook defined in IMA is not SELinux specific - it is generic enough
to be used by any security module to measure their STATE and POLICY.

I have implemented the measurement for SELinux to illustrate the usage.

Tyler's suggestion was to allow this IMA policy only when component(s)
that are using it are also enabled.
