      SELinux: improve performance when AVC misses. · 9fe79ad1
      KaiGai Kohei 提交于
      * We add ebitmap_for_each_positive_bit() which enables to walk on
        any positive bit on the given ebitmap, to improve its performance
        using common bit-operations defined in linux/bitops.h.
        In the previous version, this logic was implemented using a combination
        of ebitmap_for_each_bit() and ebitmap_node_get_bit(), but is was worse
        in performance aspect.
        This logic is most frequestly used to compute a new AVC entry,
        so this patch can improve SELinux performance when AVC misses are happen.
      * struct ebitmap_node is redefined as an array of "unsigned long", to get
        suitable for using find_next_bit() which is fasted than iteration of
        shift and logical operation, and to maximize memory usage allocated
        from general purpose slab.
      * Any ebitmap_for_each_bit() are repleced by the new implementation
        in ss/service.c and ss/mls.c. Some of related implementation are
        changed, however, there is no incompatibility with the previous
        version.
      * The width of any new line are less or equal than 80-chars.
      
      The following benchmark shows the effect of this patch, when we
      access many files which have different security context one after
      another. The number is more than /selinux/avc/cache_threshold, so
      any access always causes AVC misses.

      NetLabel: convert to an extensibile/sparse category bitmap · 02752760
      Paul Moore 提交于
      The original NetLabel category bitmap was a straight char bitmap which worked
      fine for the initial release as it only supported 240 bits due to limitations
      in the CIPSO restricted bitmap tag (tag type 0x01).  This patch converts that
      straight char bitmap into an extensibile/sparse bitmap in order to lay the
      foundation for other CIPSO tag types and protocols.
      
      This patch also has a nice side effect in that all of the security attributes
      passed by NetLabel into the LSM are now in a format which is in the host's
      native byte/bit ordering which makes the LSM specific code much simpler; look
      at the changes in security/selinux/ss/ebitmap.c as an example.

      [NetLabel]: SELinux support · 7420ed23
      Venkat Yekkirala 提交于
      Add NetLabel support to the SELinux LSM and modify the
      socket_post_create() LSM hook to return an error code.  The most
      significant part of this patch is the addition of NetLabel hooks into
      the following SELinux LSM hooks:
      
       * selinux_file_permission()
       * selinux_socket_sendmsg()
       * selinux_socket_post_create()
       * selinux_socket_sock_rcv_skb()
       * selinux_socket_getpeersec_stream()
       * selinux_socket_getpeersec_dgram()
       * selinux_sock_graft()
       * selinux_inet_conn_request()
      
      The basic reasoning behind this patch is that outgoing packets are
      "NetLabel'd" by labeling their socket and the NetLabel security
      attributes are checked via the additional hook in
      selinux_socket_sock_rcv_skb().  NetLabel itself is only a labeling
      mechanism, similar to filesystem extended attributes, it is up to the
      SELinux enforcement mechanism to perform the actual access checks.
      
      In addition to the changes outlined above this patch also includes
      some changes to the extended bitmap (ebitmap) and multi-level security
      (mls) code to import and export SELinux TE/MLS attributes into and out
      of NetLabel.

      [PATCH] selinux: Reduce memory use by avtab · 782ebb99
      Stephen Smalley 提交于
      This patch improves memory use by SELinux by both reducing the avtab node
      size and reducing the number of avtab nodes.  The memory savings are
      substantial, e.g.  on a 64-bit system after boot, James Morris reported the
      following data for the targeted and strict policies:
      
                  #objs  objsize   kernmem
      Targeted:
        Before:  237888       40     9.1MB
        After:    19968       24     468KB
      
      Strict:
        Before:  571680       40   21.81MB
        After:   221052       24    5.06MB
      
      The improvement in memory use comes at a cost in the speed of security
      server computations of access vectors, but these computations are only
      required on AVC cache misses, and performance measurements by James Morris
      using a number of benchmarks have shown that the change does not cause any
      significant degradation.
      
      Note that a rebuilt policy via an updated policy toolchain
      (libsepol/checkpolicy) is required in order to gain the full benefits of
      this patch, although some memory savings benefits are immediately applied
      even to older policies (in particular, the reduction in avtab node size).
      Sources for the updated toolchain are presently available from the
      sourceforge CVS tree (http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=21266), and
      tarballs are available from http://www.flux.utah.edu/~sds.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
