[RFC PATCH v12 10/20] ipe: add permissive toggle

From: Fan Wu
Date: Tue Jan 30 2024 - 17:41:32 EST


From: Deven Bowers <deven.desai@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

IPE, like SELinux, supports a permissive mode. This mode allows policy
authors to test and evaluate IPE policy without it effecting their
programs. When the mode is changed, a 1404 AUDIT_MAC_STATUS
be reported.

This patch adds the following audit records:

audit: MAC_STATUS enforcing=0 old_enforcing=1 auid=4294967295
ses=4294967295 enabled=1 old-enabled=1 lsm=ipe res=1
audit: MAC_STATUS enforcing=1 old_enforcing=0 auid=4294967295
ses=4294967295 enabled=1 old-enabled=1 lsm=ipe res=1

The audit record only emit when the value from the user input is
different from the current enforce value.

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

v3:
+ Move ipe_load_properties to patch 04.
+ Remove useless 0-initializations
+ Prefix extern variables with ipe_
+ Remove kernel module parameters, as these are
exposed through sysctls.
+ Add more prose to the IPE base config option
help text.
+ Use GFP_KERNEL for audit_log_start.
+ Remove unnecessary caching system.
+ Remove comments from headers
+ Use rcu_access_pointer for rcu-pointer null check
+ Remove usage of reqprot; use prot only.
+ Move policy load and activation audit event to 03/12

v4:
+ Remove sysctls in favor of securityfs nodes
+ Re-add kernel module parameters, as these are now
exposed through securityfs.
+ Refactor property audit loop to a separate function.

v5:
+ fix minor grammatical errors
+ do not group rule by curly-brace in audit record,
reconstruct the exact rule.

v6:
+ No changes

v7:
+ Further split lsm creation into a separate commit from the
evaluation loop and audit system, for easier review.
+ Propagating changes to support the new ipe_context structure in the
evaluation loop.
+ Split out permissive functionality into a separate patch for easier
review.
+ Remove permissive switch compile-time configuration option - this
is trivial to add later.

v8:
+ Remove "IPE" prefix from permissive audit record
+ align fields to the linux-audit field dictionary. This causes the
following fields to change:
enforce -> permissive

+ Remove duplicated information correlated with syscall record, that
will always be present in the audit event.
+ Change audit types:
+ AUDIT_TRUST_STATUS -> AUDIT_MAC_STATUS
+ There is no significant difference in meaning between
these types.

v9:
+ Clean up ipe_context related code

v10:
+ Change audit format to comform with the existing format selinux is
using
+ Remove the audit record emission during init to align with selinux,
which does not perform this action.

v11:
+ Remove redundant code

v12:
+ Remove redundant code
