2023-11-13LSM: Helpers for attribute names and filling lsm_ctxCasey Schaufler1-0/+24
Add lsm_name_to_attr(), which translates a text string to a LSM_ATTR value if one is available. Add lsm_fill_user_ctx(), which fills a struct lsm_ctx, including the trailing attribute value. Both are used in module specific components of LSM system calls.

2023-11-13LSM: Create lsm_list_modules system callCasey Schaufler1-0/+39
Create a system call to report the list of Linux Security Modules that are active on the system. The list is provided as an array of LSM ID numbers. The calling application can use this list determine what LSM specific actions it might take. That might include choosing an output format, determining required privilege or bypassing security module specific behavior.

2023-11-13LSM: syscalls for current process attributesCasey Schaufler1-0/+57
Create a system call lsm_get_self_attr() to provide the security module maintained attributes of the current process. Create a system call lsm_set_self_attr() to set a security module maintained attribute of the current process. Historically these attributes have been exposed to user space via entries in procfs under /proc/self/attr. The attribute value is provided in a lsm_ctx structure. The structure identifies the size of the attribute, and the attribute value. The format of the attribute value is defined by the security module. A flags field is included for LSM specific information. It is currently unused and must be 0. The total size of the data, including the lsm_ctx structure and any padding, is maintained as well. struct lsm_ctx { __u64 id; __u64 flags; __u64 len; __u64 ctx_len; __u8 ctx[]; }; Two new LSM hooks are used to interface with the LSMs. security_getselfattr() collects the lsm_ctx values from the LSMs that support the hook, accounting for space requirements. security_setselfattr() identifies which LSM the attribute is intended for and passes it along.
