      Annotate hardware config module parameters in drivers/net/ethernet/ · df298408
      David Howells authored
      When the kernel is running in secure boot mode, we lock down the kernel to
      prevent userspace from modifying the running kernel image.  Whilst this
      includes prohibiting access to things like /dev/mem, it must also prevent
      access by means of configuring driver modules in such a way as to cause a
      device to access or modify the kernel image.
      
      To this end, annotate module_param* statements that refer to hardware
      configuration and indicate for future reference what type of parameter they
      specify.  The parameter parser in the core sees this information and can
      skip such parameters with an error message if the kernel is locked down.
      The module initialisation then runs as normal, but just sees whatever the
      default values for those parameters is.
      
      Note that we do still need to do the module initialisation because some
      drivers have viable defaults set in case parameters aren't specified and
      some drivers support automatic configuration (e.g. PNP or PCI) in addition
      to manually coded parameters.
      
      This patch annotates drivers in drivers/net/ethernet/.

      [Note: With regard to cs5535-clockevt.c, Thomas Gleixner asked whether the
       timer_irq parameter is required for the driver to work on anything other than
       arbitrary hardware which has it mapped to 0.  Jens Rottmann replied that the
       parameter defaults to 0, which means:
      
      	1. autodetect (=keep IRQ BIOS has set up)
      	2. if that fails use CONFIG_CS5535_MFGPT_DEFAULT_IRQ
      	   (see drivers/misc/cs5535-mfgpt.c: cs5535_mfgpt_set_irq())
      
       Jens further noted that there may not be any systems that have CS5535/36
       devices that support EFI and secure boot.]

      Annotate hardware config module parameters in drivers/char/mwave/ · 94b599bc
      David Howells authored
      When the kernel is running in secure boot mode, we lock down the kernel to
      prevent userspace from modifying the running kernel image.  Whilst this
      includes prohibiting access to things like /dev/mem, it must also prevent
      access by means of configuring driver modules in such a way as to cause a
      device to access or modify the kernel image.
      
      To this end, annotate module_param* statements that refer to hardware
      configuration and indicate for future reference what type of parameter they
      specify.  The parameter parser in the core sees this information and can
      skip such parameters with an error message if the kernel is locked down.
      The module initialisation then runs as normal, but just sees whatever the
      default values for those parameters is.
      
      Note that we do still need to do the module initialisation because some
      drivers have viable defaults set in case parameters aren't specified and
      some drivers support automatic configuration (e.g. PNP or PCI) in addition
      to manually coded parameters.
      
      This patch annotates drivers in drivers/char/mwave/.

      Annotate module params that specify hardware parameters (eg. ioport) · bf616d21
      David Howells authored
      Provided an annotation for module parameters that specify hardware
      parameters (such as io ports, iomem addresses, irqs, dma channels, fixed
      dma buffers and other types).
      
      This will enable such parameters to be locked down in the core parameter
      parser for secure boot support.
      
      I've also included annotations as to what sort of hardware configuration
      each module is dealing with for future use.  Some of these are
      straightforward (ioport, iomem, irq, dma), but there are also:
      
       (1) drivers that switch the semantics of a parameter between ioport and
           iomem depending on a second parameter,
      
       (2) drivers that appear to reserve a CPU memory buffer at a fixed address,
      
       (3) other parameters, such as bus types and irq selection bitmasks.
      
      For the moment, the hardware configuration type isn't actually stored,
      though its validity is checked.

      LSM: Revive security_task_alloc() hook and per "struct task_struct" security blob. · e4e55b47
      Tetsuo Handa authored
      We switched from "struct task_struct"->security to "struct cred"->security
      in Linux 2.6.29. But not all LSM modules were happy with that change.
      TOMOYO LSM module is an example which want to use per "struct task_struct"
      security blob, for TOMOYO's security context is defined based on "struct
      task_struct" rather than "struct cred". AppArmor LSM module is another
      example which want to use it, for AppArmor is currently abusing the cred
      a little bit to store the change_hat and setexeccon info. Although
      security_task_free() hook was revived in Linux 3.4 because Yama LSM module
      wanted to release per "struct task_struct" security blob,
      security_task_alloc() hook and "struct task_struct"->security field were
      not revived. Nowadays, we are getting proposals of lightweight LSM modules
      which want to use per "struct task_struct" security blob.
      
      We are already allowing multiple concurrent LSM modules (up to one fully
      armored module which uses "struct cred"->security field or exclusive hooks
      like security_xfrm_state_pol_flow_match(), plus unlimited number of
      lightweight modules which do not use "struct cred"->security nor exclusive
      hooks) as long as they are built into the kernel. But this patch does not
      implement variable length "struct task_struct"->security field which will
      become needed when multiple LSM modules want to use "struct task_struct"->
      security field. Although it won't be difficult to implement variable length
      "struct task_struct"->security field, let's think about it after we merged
      this patch.
