config SECURITY_SELINUX
bool "NSA SELinux Support"
depends on SECURITY_NETWORK && AUDIT && NET && INET
select NETWORK_SECMARK
default n
help
This selects NSA Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux).
You will also need a policy configuration and a labeled filesystem.
If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
config SECURITY_SELINUX_BOOTPARAM
bool "NSA SELinux boot parameter"
depends on SECURITY_SELINUX
default n
help
This option adds a kernel parameter 'selinux', which allows SELinux
to be disabled at boot. If this option is selected, SELinux
functionality can be disabled with selinux=0 on the kernel
command line. The purpose of this option is to allow a single
kernel image to be distributed with SELinux built in, but not
necessarily enabled.
If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
config SECURITY_SELINUX_DISABLE
bool "NSA SELinux runtime disable"
depends on SECURITY_SELINUX
select SECURITY_WRITABLE_HOOKS
default n
help
This option enables writing to a selinuxfs node 'disable', which
allows SELinux to be disabled at runtime prior to the policy load.
SELinux will then remain disabled until the next boot.
This option is similar to the selinux=0 boot parameter, but is to
support runtime disabling of SELinux, e.g. from /sbin/init, for
portability across platforms where boot parameters are difficult
to employ.
NOTE: selecting this option will disable the '__ro_after_init'
kernel hardening feature for security hooks. Please consider
using the selinux=0 boot parameter instead of enabling this
option.
selinux: deprecate disabling SELinux and runtime Deprecate the CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DISABLE functionality. The code was originally developed to make it easier for Linux distributions to support architectures where adding parameters to the kernel command line was difficult. Unfortunately, supporting runtime disable meant we had to make some security trade-offs when it came to the LSM hooks, as documented in the Kconfig help text: NOTE: selecting this option will disable the '__ro_after_init' kernel hardening feature for security hooks. Please consider using the selinux=0 boot parameter instead of enabling this option. Fortunately it looks as if that the original motivation for the runtime disable functionality is gone, and Fedora/RHEL appears to be the only major distribution enabling this capability at build time so we are now taking steps to remove it entirely from the kernel. The first step is to mark the functionality as deprecated and print an error when it is used (what this patch is doing). As Fedora/RHEL makes progress in transitioning the distribution away from runtime disable, we will introduce follow-up patches over several kernel releases which will block for increasing periods of time when the runtime disable is used. Finally we will remove the option entirely once we believe all users have moved to the kernel cmdline approach.

WARNING: this option is deprecated and will be removed in a future
kernel release.
If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
config SECURITY_SELINUX_DEVELOP
bool "NSA SELinux Development Support"
depends on SECURITY_SELINUX
default y
help
This enables the development support option of NSA SELinux,
which is useful for experimenting with SELinux and developing
policies. If unsure, say Y. With this option enabled, the
kernel will start in permissive mode (log everything, deny nothing)
unless you specify enforcing=1 on the kernel command line. You
can interactively toggle the kernel between enforcing mode and
permissive mode (if permitted by the policy) via
/sys/fs/selinux/enforce.
config SECURITY_SELINUX_AVC_STATS
bool "NSA SELinux AVC Statistics"
depends on SECURITY_SELINUX
default y
help
This option collects access vector cache statistics to
/sys/fs/selinux/avc/cache_stats, which may be monitored via
tools such as avcstat.
config SECURITY_SELINUX_CHECKREQPROT_VALUE
int "NSA SELinux checkreqprot default value"
depends on SECURITY_SELINUX
range 0 1
default 0
help
This option sets the default value for the 'checkreqprot' flag
that determines whether SELinux checks the protection requested
by the application or the protection that will be applied by the
kernel (including any implied execute for read-implies-exec) for
mmap and mprotect calls. If this option is set to 0 (zero),
SELinux will default to checking the protection that will be applied
by the kernel. If this option is set to 1 (one), SELinux will
default to checking the protection requested by the application.
The checkreqprot flag may be changed from the default via the
'checkreqprot=' boot parameter. It may also be changed at runtime
via /sys/fs/selinux/checkreqprot if authorized by policy.
WARNING: this option is deprecated and will be removed in a future
kernel release.
If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer 0.
selinux: sidtab reverse lookup hash table This replaces the reverse table lookup and reverse cache with a hashtable which improves cache-miss reverse-lookup times from O(n) to O(1)* and maintains the same performance as a reverse cache hit. This reduces the time needed to add a new sidtab entry from ~500us to 5us on a Pixel 3 when there are ~10,000 sidtab entries. The implementation uses the kernel's generic hashtable API, It uses the context's string represtation as the hash source, and the kernels generic string hashing algorithm full_name_hash() to reduce the string to a 32 bit value. This change also maintains the improvement introduced in commit ee1a84fdfeed ("selinux: overhaul sidtab to fix bug and improve performance") which removed the need to keep the current sidtab locked during policy reload. It does however introduce periodic locking of the target sidtab while converting the hashtable. Sidtab entries are never modified or removed, so the context struct stored in the sid_to_context tree can also be used for the context_to_sid hashtable to reduce memory usage. This bug was reported by: - On the selinux bug tracker. BUG: kernel softlockup due to too many SIDs/contexts #37 https://github.com/SELinuxProject/selinux-kernel/issues/37 - Jovana Knezevic on Android's bugtracker. Bug: 140252993 "During multi-user performance testing, we create and remove users many times. selinux_android_restorecon_pkgdir goes from 1ms to over 20ms after about 200 user creations and removals. Accumulated over ~280 packages, that adds a significant time to user creation, making perf benchmarks unreliable." * Hashtable lookup is only O(1) when n < the number of buckets.

config SECURITY_SELINUX_SIDTAB_HASH_BITS
int "NSA SELinux sidtab hashtable size"
depends on SECURITY_SELINUX
range 8 13
default 9
help
This option sets the number of buckets used in the sidtab hashtable
to 2^SECURITY_SELINUX_SIDTAB_HASH_BITS buckets. The number of hash
collisions may be viewed at /sys/fs/selinux/ss/sidtab_hash_stats. If
chain lengths are high (e.g. > 20) then selecting a higher value here
will ensure that lookups times are short and stable.
selinux: cache the SID -> context string translation Translating a context struct to string can be quite slow, especially if the context has a lot of category bits set. This can cause quite noticeable performance impact in situations where the translation needs to be done repeatedly. A common example is a UNIX datagram socket with the SO_PASSSEC option enabled, which is used e.g. by systemd-journald when receiving log messages via datagram socket. This scenario can be reproduced with: cat /dev/urandom | base64 | logger & timeout 30s perf record -p $(pidof systemd-journald) -a -g kill %1 perf report -g none --pretty raw | grep security_secid_to_secctx Before the caching introduced by this patch, computing the context string (security_secid_to_secctx() function) takes up ~65% of systemd-journald's CPU time (assuming a context with 1024 categories set and Fedora x86_64 release kernel configs). After this patch (assuming near-perfect cache hit ratio) this overhead is reduced to just ~2%. This patch addresses the issue by caching a certain number (compile-time configurable) of recently used context strings to speed up repeated translations of the same context, while using only a small amount of memory. The cache is integrated into the existing sidtab table by adding a field to each entry, which when not NULL contains an RCU-protected pointer to a cache entry containing the cached string. The cache entries are kept in a linked list sorted according to how recently they were used. On a cache miss when the cache is full, the least recently used entry is removed to make space for the new entry. The patch migrates security_sid_to_context_core() to use the cache (also a few other functions where it was possible without too much fuss, but these mostly use the translation for logging in case of error, which is rare).
