Subject: [RFC PATCH v15 08/21] ipe: add userspace interface
Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2024 20:35:38 -0700
Message-Id: <1710560151-28904-9-git-send-email-wufan@linux.microsoft.com>
In-Reply-To: <1710560151-28904-1-git-send-email-wufan@linux.microsoft.com>
References: <1710560151-28904-1-git-send-email-wufan@linux.microsoft.com>
Precedence: bulk

From: Deven Bowers <deven.desai@linux.microsoft.com>

As is typical with LSMs, IPE uses securityfs as its interface with
userspace. for a complete list of the interfaces and the respective
inputs/outputs, please see the documentation under
admin-guide/LSM/ipe.rst

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

v3:
  + Move policy load and activation audit event to 03/12
  + Fix a potential panic when a policy failed to load.
  + use pr_warn for a failure to parse instead of an
    audit record
  + Remove comments from headers
  + Add lockdep assertions to ipe_update_active_policy and
    ipe_activate_policy
  + Fix up warnings with checkpatch --strict
  + Use file_ns_capable for CAP_MAC_ADMIN for securityfs
    nodes.
  + Use memdup_user instead of kzalloc+simple_write_to_buffer.
  + Remove strict_parse command line parameter, as it is added
    by the sysctl command line.
  + Prefix extern variables with ipe_

v4:
  + Remove securityfs to reverse-dependency
  + Add SHA1 reverse dependency.
  + Add versioning scheme for IPE properties, and associated
    interface to query the versioning scheme.
  + Cause a parser to always return an error on unknown syntax.
  + Remove strict_parse option
  + Change active_policy interface from sysctl, to securityfs,
    and change scheme.

v5:
  + Cause an error if a default action is not defined for each
    operation.
  + Minor function renames

v6:
  + No changes

v7:
  + Propagating changes to support the new ipe_context structure in the
    evaluation loop.

  + Further split the parser and userspace interface changes into
    separate commits.

  + "raw" was renamed to "pkcs7" and made read only
  + "raw"'s write functionality (update a policy) moved to "update"
  + introduced "version", "policy_name" nodes.
  + "content" renamed to "policy"
  + changes to allow the compiled-in policy to be treated
    identical to deployed-after-the-fact policies.

v8:
  + Prevent securityfs initialization if the LSM is disabled

v9:
  + Switch to securityfs_recursive_remove for policy folder deletion

v10:
  + Simplify and correct concurrency
  + Fix typos

v11:
  + Correct code comments

v12:
  + Correct locking and remove redundant code

v13:
  + Move the free of old policy into the ipe_update_policy function

v14:
  + No changes

v15:
  + No changes
