Merge branch 'bpf-lsm'

KP Singh says:

====================
** Motivation

Google does analysis of rich runtime security data to detect and thwart
threats in real-time. Currently, this is done in custom kernel modules
but we would like to replace this with something that's upstream and
useful to others.

The current kernel infrastructure for providing telemetry (Audit, Perf
etc.) is disjoint from access enforcement (i.e. LSMs).  Augmenting the
information provided by audit requires kernel changes to audit, its
policy language and user-space components. Furthermore, building a MAC
policy based on the newly added telemetry data requires changes to
various LSMs and their respective policy languages.

This patchset allows BPF programs to be attached to LSM hooks This
facilitates a unified and dynamic (not requiring re-compilation of the
kernel) audit and MAC policy.

** Why an LSM?

Linux Security Modules target security behaviours rather than the
kernel's API. For example, it's easy to miss out a newly added system
call for executing processes (eg. execve, execveat etc.) but the LSM
framework ensures that all process executions trigger the relevant hooks
irrespective of how the process was executed.

Allowing users to implement LSM hooks at runtime also benefits the LSM
eco-system by enabling a quick feedback loop from the security community
about the kind of behaviours that the LSM Framework should be targeting.

** How does it work?

The patchset introduces a new eBPF (https://docs.cilium.io/en/v1.6/bpf/)
program type BPF_PROG_TYPE_LSM which can only be attached to LSM hooks.
Loading and attachment of BPF programs requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN.

The new LSM registers nop functions (bpf_lsm_<hook_name>) as LSM hook
callbacks. Their purpose is to provide a definite point where BPF
programs can be attached as BPF_TRAMP_MODIFY_RETURN trampoline programs
for hooks that return an int, and BPF_TRAMP_FEXIT trampoline programs
for void LSM hooks.

Audit logs can be written using a format chosen by the eBPF program to
the perf events buffer or to global eBPF variables or maps and can be
further processed in user-space.

** BTF Based Design

The current design uses BTF:

  * https://facebookmicrosites.github.io/bpf/blog/2018/11/14/btf-enhancement.html
  * https://lwn.net/Articles/803258

which allows verifiable read-only structure accesses by field names
rather than fixed offsets. This allows accessing the hook parameters
using a dynamically created context which provides a certain degree of
ABI stability:

  // Only declare the structure and fields intended to be used
  // in the program
  struct vm_area_struct {
    unsigned long vm_start;
  } __attribute__((preserve_access_index));

  // Declare the eBPF program mprotect_audit which attaches to
  // to the file_mprotect LSM hook and accepts three arguments.
  SEC("lsm/file_mprotect")
  int BPF_PROG(mprotect_audit, struct vm_area_struct *vma,
         unsigned long reqprot, unsigned long prot, int ret)
  {
    unsigned long vm_start = vma->vm_start;
    return 0;
  }

By relocating field offsets, BTF makes a large portion of kernel data
structures readily accessible across kernel versions without requiring a
large corpus of BPF helper functions and requiring recompilation with
every kernel version. The BTF type information is also used by the BPF
verifier to validate memory accesses within the BPF program and also
prevents arbitrary writes to the kernel memory.

The limitations of BTF compatibility are described in BPF Co-Re
(http://vger.kernel.org/bpfconf2019_talks/bpf-core.pdf, i.e. field
renames, #defines and changes to the signature of LSM hooks).  This
design imposes that the MAC policy (eBPF programs) be updated when the
inspected kernel structures change outside of BTF compatibility
guarantees. In practice, this is only required when a structure field
used by a current policy is removed (or renamed) or when the used LSM
hooks change. We expect the maintenance cost of these changes to be
acceptable as compared to the design presented in the RFC.

** Usage Examples

A simple example and some documentation is included in the patchset.
In order to better illustrate the capabilities of the framework some
more advanced prototype (not-ready for review) code has also been
published separately:

* Logging execution events (including environment variables and
  arguments)
  https://github.com/sinkap/linux-krsi/blob/patch/v1/examples/samples/bpf/lsm_audit_env.c

* Detecting deletion of running executables:
  https://github.com/sinkap/linux-krsi/blob/patch/v1/examples/samples/bpf/lsm_detect_exec_unlink.c

* Detection of writes to /proc/<pid>/mem:
  https://github.com/sinkap/linux-krsi/blob/patch/v1/examples/samples/bpf/lsm_audit_env.c

We have updated Google's internal telemetry infrastructure and have
started deploying this LSM on our Linux Workstations. This gives us more
confidence in the real-world applications of such a system.

** Changelog:

  https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/[email protected]/
* Removed __weak from the LSM attachment nops per Kees' suggestion.
  Will send a separate patch (if needed) to update the noinline
  definition in include/linux/compiler_attributes.h.
* waitpid to wait specifically for the forked child in selftests.
* Comment format fixes in security/... as suggested by Casey.
* Added Acks from Kees and Andrii and Casey's Reviewed-by: tags to
  the respective patches.
* Rebase

- v5 -> v6:
  https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/[email protected]/
* Updated LSM_HOOK macro to define a default value and cleaned up the
  BPF LSM hook declarations.
* Added Yonghong's Acks and Kees' Reviewed-by tags.
* Simplification of the selftest code.
* Rebase and fixes suggested by Andrii and Yonghong and some other minor
  fixes noticed in internal review.

- v4 -> v5:
  https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/[email protected]/
* Removed static keys and special casing of BPF calls from the LSM
  framework.
* Initialized the BPF callbacks (nops) as proper LSM hooks.
* Updated to using the newly introduced BPF_TRAMP_MODIFY_RETURN
  trampolines in https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/3/4/877
* Addressed Andrii's feedback and rebased.

- v3 -> v4:
* Moved away from allocating a separate security_hook_heads and adding a
  new special case for arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline to using BPF fexit
  trampolines called from the right place in the LSM hook and toggled by
  static keys based on the discussion in:
  https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/CAG48ez25mW+_oCxgCtbiGMX07g_ph79UOJa07h=o_6B6+Q-u5g@mail.gmail.com/
* Since the code does not deal with security_hook_heads anymore, it goes
  from "being a BPF LSM" to "BPF program attachment to LSM hooks".
* Added a new test case which ensures that the BPF programs' return value
  is reflected by the LSM hook.

- v2 -> v3 does not change the overall design and has some minor fixes:
* LSM_ORDER_LAST is introduced to represent the behaviour of the BPF LSM
* Fixed the inadvertent clobbering of the LSM Hook error codes
* Added GPL license requirement to the commit log
* The lsm_hook_idx is now the more conventional 0-based index
* Some changes were split into a separate patch ("Load btf_vmlinux only
  once per object")
  https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/[email protected]/
* Addressed Andrii's feedback on the BTF implementation
* Documentation update for using generated vmlinux.h to simplify
  programs
* Rebase

- Changes since v1:
  https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/[email protected]
* Eliminate the requirement to maintain LSM hooks separately in
  security/bpf/hooks.h Use BPF trampolines to dynamically allocate
  security hooks
* Drop the use of securityfs as bpftool provides the required
  introspection capabilities.  Update the tests to use the bpf_skeleton
  and global variables
* Use O_CLOEXEC anonymous fds to represent BPF attachment in line with
  the other BPF programs with the possibility to use bpf program pinning
  in the future to provide "permanent attachment".
* Drop the logic based on prog names for handling re-attachment.
* Drop bpf_lsm_event_output from this series and send it as a separate
  patch.

+================
+LSM BPF Programs
+================
+
+These BPF programs allow runtime instrumentation of the LSM hooks by privileged
+users to implement system-wide MAC (Mandatory Access Control) and Audit
+policies using eBPF.
+
+Structure
+---------
+
+The example shows an eBPF program that can be attached to the ``file_mprotect``
+LSM hook:
+
+.. c:function:: int file_mprotect(struct vm_area_struct *vma, unsigned long reqprot, unsigned long prot);
+
+Other LSM hooks which can be instrumented can be found in
+``include/linux/lsm_hooks.h``.
+
+eBPF programs that use :doc:`/bpf/btf` do not need to include kernel headers
+for accessing information from the attached eBPF program's context. They can
+simply declare the structures in the eBPF program and only specify the fields
+that need to be accessed.
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+	struct mm_struct {
+		unsigned long start_brk, brk, start_stack;
+	} __attribute__((preserve_access_index));
+
+	struct vm_area_struct {
+		unsigned long start_brk, brk, start_stack;
+		unsigned long vm_start, vm_end;
+		struct mm_struct *vm_mm;
+	} __attribute__((preserve_access_index));
+
+
+.. note:: The order of the fields is irrelevant.
+
+This can be further simplified (if one has access to the BTF information at
+build time) by generating the ``vmlinux.h`` with:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+	# bpftool btf dump file <path-to-btf-vmlinux> format c > vmlinux.h
+
+.. note:: ``path-to-btf-vmlinux`` can be ``/sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux`` if the
+	  build environment matches the environment the BPF programs are
+	  deployed in.
+
+The ``vmlinux.h`` can then simply be included in the BPF programs without
+requiring the definition of the types.
+
+The eBPF programs can be declared using the``BPF_PROG``
+macros defined in `tools/lib/bpf/bpf_tracing.h`_. In this
+example:
+
+	* ``"lsm/file_mprotect"`` indicates the LSM hook that the program must
+	  be attached to
+	* ``mprotect_audit`` is the name of the eBPF program
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+	SEC("lsm/file_mprotect")
+	int BPF_PROG(mprotect_audit, struct vm_area_struct *vma,
+		     unsigned long reqprot, unsigned long prot, int ret)
+	{
+		/* ret is the return value from the previous BPF program
+		 * or 0 if it's the first hook.
+		 */
+		if (ret != 0)
+			return ret;
+
+		int is_heap;
+
+		is_heap = (vma->vm_start >= vma->vm_mm->start_brk &&
+			   vma->vm_end <= vma->vm_mm->brk);
+
+		/* Return an -EPERM or write information to the perf events buffer
+		 * for auditing
+		 */
+		if (is_heap)
+			return -EPERM;
+	}
+
+The ``__attribute__((preserve_access_index))`` is a clang feature that allows
+the BPF verifier to update the offsets for the access at runtime using the
+:doc:`/bpf/btf` information. Since the BPF verifier is aware of the types, it
+also validates all the accesses made to the various types in the eBPF program.
+
+Loading
+-------
+
+eBPF programs can be loaded with the :manpage:`bpf(2)` syscall's
+``BPF_PROG_LOAD`` operation:
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+	struct bpf_object *obj;
+
+	obj = bpf_object__open("./my_prog.o");
+	bpf_object__load(obj);
+
+This can be simplified by using a skeleton header generated by ``bpftool``:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+	# bpftool gen skeleton my_prog.o > my_prog.skel.h
+
+and the program can be loaded by including ``my_prog.skel.h`` and using
+the generated helper, ``my_prog__open_and_load``.
+
+Attachment to LSM Hooks
+-----------------------
+
+The LSM allows attachment of eBPF programs as LSM hooks using :manpage:`bpf(2)`
+syscall's ``BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN`` operation or more simply by
+using the libbpf helper ``bpf_program__attach_lsm``.
+
+The program can be detached from the LSM hook by *destroying* the ``link``
+link returned by ``bpf_program__attach_lsm`` using ``bpf_link__destroy``.
+
+One can also use the helpers generated in ``my_prog.skel.h`` i.e.
+``my_prog__attach`` for attachment and ``my_prog__destroy`` for cleaning up.
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+An example eBPF program can be found in
+`tools/testing/selftests/bpf/progs/lsm.c`_ and the corresponding
+userspace code in `tools/testing/selftests/bpf/prog_tests/test_lsm.c`_
