      evm: remove TCG_TPM dependency · 1d714057
      Mimi Zohar 提交于
      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.

      evm: add Kconfig TCG_TPM dependency · dbe5ad17
      Mimi Zohar 提交于
      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.

      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
