Provide implementations of some sample operating system security
policy extensions. These are not yet hooked up to the build as
other infrastructure is still being committed. Most of these
work fairly well and are in daily use in our development and (limited)
production environments. Some are not yet in their final form,
and a number of the labeled policies waste a lot of kernel memory
and will be fixed over the next month or so to be more conservative.
They do give good examples of the flexibility of the MAC framework
for implementing a variety of security policies.
mac_biba: Implementation of fixed-label Biba integrity policy,
similar to those found in a number of commercial
trusted operating systems. All subjects and objects
are assigned integrity levels, and information flow
is controlled based on a read-up, write-down
policy. Currently, purely hierarchal.
mac_bsdextended: Implementation of a "file system firewall",
which allows the administrator to specify a series
of rules limiting access by users and groups to
objects owned by other users and groups. This
policy is unlabeled, relying on existing system
security labeling (file permissions/ownership,
process credentials).
mac_ifoff: Secure interface silencing. Special-purpose module
to limit inappropriate out-going network traffic
for silent monitoring scenarios. Prevents the
various network stacks from generating any output
despite an interface being live for reception.
mac_mls: Implementation of fixed-label Multi-Level Security
confidentiality policy, similar to those found in
a number of commercial trusted operating systems.
All subjects and objects are assigned confidentiality
levels, and information flow is controlled based on
a write-up, read-down policy. Currently, purely
hiearchal, although non-hierarchal support is in the
works.
mac_none: Policy module implementing all MAC policy entry
points with empty stubs. A good place to start if
you want all the prototypes types in for you, and
don't mind a bit of pruning. Can be loaded, but
has no access control impact. Useful also for
performance measurements.
mac_seeotheruids: Policy module implementing a security service
similar to security.bsd.seeotheruids, only a slightly
more detailed policy involving exceptions for members
of specific groups, etc. This policy is unlabeled,
relying on existing system security labeling
(process credentials).

not freed multiple times, etc, etc.

If the data is large, wire the output buffer instead.
This is somewhat less than optimal, since the handler could skip the copy
if it knew that the data was static.
If the data is dynamic, we are still not guaranteed to get a consistent
copy since another processor could change the data while the copy is in
progress because the data is not locked. This problem could be solved if
the generic handlers had the ability to grab the proper lock before the
copy and release it afterwards.
This may duplicate work done in other sysctl handlers in the kernel which
also copy the data, possibly while a lock is held, before calling they call
a generic handler to output the data. These handlers should probably call

in the vnode is currently valid, and therefore doesn't need to
be refreshed before an access control decision can be made. Most
file systems (or stdvops) will set this flag after they load the
MAC label from disk the first time to prevent redundant disk I/O;
some file synthetic file systems (procfs, for example) may not.

o MFUNC is the name of the register on TI 1200 and newer chips (except

o move zoom video disable to a better place.
o Rename the insanely long PCIC bridge ids.
o Add my copyright to pccbb.c
o Add support for the TI-1510, TI-1520 and TI-4510 series of upcoming
bridges.
o Init MFUNC if it is zero and the TI part has a MFUNC register
at offset 0x8c (1030, 1130 and 1131 don't have anything there, the
1250,1251,1251B and 1450 have a different thing there. The rest
have it. TI is likely to only do MFUNC from now on. The IRQMUX
in the 1250 series of chips needs no tweaks.
o Adjust to new exca interface.
o Add comments about TI chips that I learned in talking to an
engineer at TI.
o Add register definitions for MFUNC.
o Create CB_TI125X chipset type.
o Protect .h against multiple includes.
o eliminate the pointers to the read/write routines. The
bus_space_read routines can cope since we have the offset
field.
o Print a warning if the requested map address is > 16M and
your chipset doesn't support the extended ExCA registers.

is that grouped frees will be done as most often as possible without
dropping the cache lock in between. So, for the most part, they'll be
done without the lock being dropped. This is particularly true if you
have something that does a grouped m_getm() or m_getcl() (a cluster and
mbuf at the same time) - most likely getting the buffers from the
same per-CPU cache - and then frees them with m_free{,m}(). Unless
the buffers' underlying buckets were moved, the free will be done without
the lock getting dropped in between. So far, only m_free() has been
shown how to do this, and m_freem() will shortly follow.
Since I'm here, I also fixed a small (but mostly harmless) type-mismatch
