[PATCH v4 02/14] security: Introduce the digest_cache LSM

Roberto Sassu
2024-04-15T14:25:47Z

From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@huawei.com>

Introduce the digest_cache LSM, to collect digests from various sources
(called digest lists), and to store them in kernel memory, in a set of hash
tables forming a digest cache. Extracted digests can be used as reference
values for integrity verification of file data or metadata.

A digest cache has three types of references: in the inode security blob of
the digest list the digest cache was created from (dig_owner field); in the
security blob of the inodes for which the digest cache is requested
(dig_user field); a reference returned by digest_cache_get().

References are released with digest_cache_put(), in the first two cases
when inodes are evicted from memory, in the last case when that function is
explicitly called. Obtaining a digest cache reference means that the digest
cache remains valid and cannot be freed until releasing it and until the
total number of references (stored in the digest cache) becomes zero.

When digest_cache_get() is called on an inode to compare its digest with
a reference value, the digest_cache LSM knows which digest cache to get
from the new security.digest_list xattr added to that inode, which contains
the file name of the desired digest list digests will be extracted from.

All digest lists are expected to be in the same directory, defined in the
kernel config, and modifiable (with a later patch) at run-time through
securityfs. When the digest_cache LSM reads the security.digest_list xattr,
it uses its value as last path component, appended to the default path
(unless the default path is a file). If an inode does not have that xattr,
the default path is considered as the final destination.

The default path can be either a file or a directory. If it is a file, the
digest_cache LSM always uses the same digest cache from that file to verify
all inodes (the xattr, if present, is ignored). If it is a directory, and
the inode to verify does not have the xattr, a subsequent patch will make
it possible to iterate and lookup on the digest caches created from each
directory entry.

Digest caches are created on demand, only when digest_cache_get() is
called. The first time a digest cache is requested, the digest_cache LSM
creates it and sets its reference in the dig_owner and dig_user fields of
the respective inode security blobs. On the next requests, the previously
set reference is returned, after incrementing the reference count.

Since there might be multiple digest_cache_get() calls for the same inode,
or for different inodes pointing to the same digest list, dig_owner_mutex
and dig_user_mutex have been introduced to protect the check and assignment
of the digest cache reference in the inode security blob.

Contenders that didn't get the lock also have to wait until the digest
cache is fully instantiated (when the bit INIT_IN_PROGRESS is cleared).
Dig_owner_mutex cannot be used for waiting on the instantiation to avoid
lock inversion with the inode lock for directories.
