198c38400a Rename mac_check_vnode_delete() MAC Framework and MAC Policy entry
point to mac_check_vnode_unlink(), reflecting UNIX naming conventions.

This is the first of several commits to synchronize the MAC Framework
in FreeBSD 7.0 with the MAC Framework as it will appear in Mac OS X
Leopard.

1c94b6d3ee In the MAC Framework implementation, file systems have two per-mountpoint
labels: the mount label (label of the mountpoint) and the fs label (label
of the file system).  In practice, policies appear to only ever use one,
and the distinction is not helpful.

Combine mnt_mntlabel and mnt_fslabel into a single mnt_label, and
eliminate extra machinery required to maintain the additional label.
Update policies to reflect removal of extra entry points and label.

d1196975a0 Remove MAC Framework access control check entry points made redundant with
the introduction of priv(9) and MAC Framework entry points for privilege
checking/granting.  These entry points exactly aligned with privileges and
provided no additional security context:

- mac_check_sysarch_ioperm()
- mac_check_kld_unload()
- mac_check_settime()
- mac_check_system_nfsd()

Add mpo_priv_check() implementations to Biba and LOMAC policies, which,
for each privilege, determine if they can be granted to processes
considered unprivileged by those two policies.  These mostly, but not
entirely, align with the set of privileges granted in jails.

7851a71064 Further MAC test policy cleanup and enhancement:
- Redistribute counter declarations to where they are used, rather than at
  the file header, so it's more clear where we do (and don't) have
  counters.

- Add many more counters, one per policy entry point, so that many
  individual access controls and object life cycle events are tracked.

- Perform counter increments for label destruction explicitly in entry
  point functions rather than in LABEL_DESTROY().

- Use LABEL_INIT() instead of SLOT_SET() directly in label init functions
  to be symmetric with destruction.

- Align counter names more carefully with entry point names.

- More constant and variable name normalization.

27da76ec29 Perform overdue clean up mac_test policy:
- Add a more detailed comment describing the mac_test policy.

- Add COUNTER_DECL() and COUNTER_INC() macros to declare and manage
  various test counters, reducing the verbosity of the test policy
  quite a bit.

- Add LABEL_CHECK() macro to abbreviate normal validation of labels.
  Unlike the previous check macros, this checks for a NULL label and
  doesn't test NULL labels.  This means that optionally passed labels
  will now be handled automatically, although in the case of optional
  credentials, NULL-checks are still required.

- Add LABEL_DESTROY() macro to abbreviate the handling of label
  validation and tear-down.

- Add LABEL_NOTFREE() macro to abbreviate check for non-free labels.

- Normalize the names of counters, magic values.

- Remove unused policy "enabled" flag.

19777f0802 Introduce accessor functions mac_label_get() and mac_label_set() to replace
LABEL_TO_SLOT() macro used by policy modules to query and set label data
in struct label.  Instead of using a union, store an intptr_t, simplifying
the API.

Update policies: in most cases this required only small tweaks to current
wrapper macros.  In two cases, a single wrapper macros had to be split into
separate get and set macros.

Move struct label definition from _label.h to mac_internal.h and remove
_label.h.  With this change, policies may now treat struct label * as
opaque, allowing us to change the layout of struct label without breaking
the policy module ABI.  For example, we could make the maximum number of
policies with labels modifiable at boot-time rather than just at
compile-time.

provided access to the root file system before the start of the
init process.  This was used briefly by SEBSD before it knew about
preloading data in the loader, and using that method to gain
access to data earlier results in fewer inconsistencies in the
approach.  Policy modules still have access to the root file system
creation event through the mac_create_mount() entry point.

Removed now, and will be removed from RELENG_6, in order to gain
third party policy dependencies on the entry point for the lifetime
of the 6.x branch.

79690d711b When devfs cloning takes place, provide access to the credential of the
process that caused the clone event to take place for the device driver
creating the device.  This allows cloned device drivers to adapt the
device node based on security aspects of the process, such as the uid,
gid, and MAC label.

- Add a cred reference to struct cdev, so that when a device node is
  instantiated as a vnode, the cloning credential can be exposed to
  MAC.

- Add make_dev_cred(), a version of make_dev() that additionally
  accepts the credential to stick in the struct cdev.  Implement it and
  make_dev() in terms of a back-end make_dev_credv().

- Add a new event handler, dev_clone_cred, which can be registered to
  receive the credential instead of dev_clone, if desired.

- Modify the MAC entry point mac_create_devfs_device() to accept an
  optional credential pointer (may be NULL), so that MAC policies can
  inspect and act on the label or other elements of the credential
  when initializing the skeleton device protections.

- Modify tty_pty.c to register clone_dev_cred and invoke make_dev_cred(),
  so that the pty clone credential is exposed to the MAC Framework.

While currently primarily focussed on MAC policies, this change is also
a prerequisite for changes to allow ptys to be instantiated with the UID
of the process looking up the pty.  This requires further changes to the
pty driver -- in particular, to immediately recycle pty nodes on last
close so that the credential-related state can be recreated on next
lookup.

b8e797cfe0 Coalesce pipe allocations and frees. Previously, the pipe code
would allocate two 'struct pipe's from the pipe zone, and malloc a
mutex.

- Create a new "struct pipepair" object holding the two 'struct
  pipe' instances, struct mutex, and struct label reference.  Pipe
  structures now have a back-pointer to the pipe pair, and a
  'pipe_present' flag to indicate whether the half has been
  closed.

- Perform mutex init/destroy in zone init/destroy, avoiding
  reallocating the mutex for each pipe.  Perform most pipe structure
  setup in zone constructor.

- VM memory mappings for pageable buffers are still done outside of
  the UMA zone.

- Change MAC API to speak 'struct pipepair' instead of 'struct pipe',
  update many policies.  MAC labels are also handled outside of the
  UMA zone for now.  Label-only policy modules don't have to be
  recompiled, but if a module is recompiled, its pipe entry points
  will need to be updated.  If a module actually reached into the
  pipe structures (unlikely), that would also need to be modified.

These changes substantially simplify failure handling in the pipe
code as there are many fewer possible failure modes.

On half-close, pipes no longer free the 'struct pipe' for the closed
half until a full-close takes place.  However, VM mapped buffers
are still released on half-close.

Some code refactoring is now possible to clean up some of the back
references, etc; this patch attempts not to change the structure
of most of the pipe implementation, only allocation/free code
paths, so as to avoid introducing bugs (hopefully).

This cuts about 8%-9% off the cost of sequential pipe allocation
and free in system call tests on UP and SMP in my micro-benchmarks.
May or may not make a difference in macro-benchmarks, but doing
less work is good.

9c969b771a Introduce a MAC label reference in 'struct inpcb', which caches
the   MAC label referenced from 'struct socket' in the IPv4 and
IPv6-based protocols.  This permits MAC labels to be checked during
network delivery operations without dereferencing inp->inp_socket
to get to so->so_label, which will eventually avoid our having to
grab the socket lock during delivery at the network layer.

This change introduces 'struct inpcb' as a labeled object to the
MAC Framework, along with the normal circus of entry points:
initialization, creation from socket, destruction, as well as a
delivery access control check.

For most policies, the inpcb label will simply be a cache of the
socket label, so a new protocol switch method is introduced,
pr_sosetlabel() to notify protocols that the socket layer label
has been updated so that the cache can be updated while holding
appropriate locks.  Most protocols implement this using
pru_sosetlabel_null(), but IPv4/IPv6 protocols using inpcbs use
the the worker function in_pcbsosetlabel(), which calls into the
MAC Framework to perform a cache update.

Biba, LOMAC, and MLS implement these entry points, as do the stub
policy, and test policy.

77ed6e2d1c Modify the MAC Framework so that instead of embedding a (struct label)
in various kernel objects to represent security data, we embed a
(struct label *) pointer, which now references labels allocated using
a UMA zone (mac_label.c).  This allows the size and shape of struct
label to be varied without changing the size and shape of these kernel
objects, which become part of the frozen ABI with 5-STABLE.  This opens
the door for boot-time selection of the number of label slots, and hence
changes to the bound on the number of simultaneous labeled policies
at boot-time instead of compile-time.  This also makes it easier to
embed label references in new objects as required for locking/caching
with fine-grained network stack locking, such as inpcb structures.

This change also moves us further in the direction of hiding the
structure of kernel objects from MAC policy modules, not to mention
dramatically reducing the number of '&' symbols appearing in both the
MAC Framework and MAC policy modules, and improving readability.

While this results in minimal performance change with MAC enabled, it
will observably shrink the size of a number of critical kernel data
structures for the !MAC case, and should have a small (but measurable)
performance benefit (i.e., struct vnode, struct socket) do to memory
conservation and reduced cost of zeroing memory.

NOTE: Users of MAC must recompile their kernel and all MAC modules as a
result of this change.  Because this is an API change, third party
MAC modules will also need to be updated to make less use of the '&'
symbol.

3cf3b40a91 Correct typo introduced during manual merge: hook up the reflect_tcp
test to the reflect_tcp entry point, rather than the reflect_icmp
entry point.

e7de110897 Retrofit of mac_test regression and consistency test module for MAC
Framework labels:

- Re-work the label state assertions to use a set of central
  ASSERT_type_LABEL() assertions.

- Test to make sure labels passed to externalize/internalize calls haven't
  been destroyed.

- For access control checks, assert the condition of all labels passed in.

- For life cycle events, assert the condition of all labels passed in.

- Add new entry point implementations for new MAC Framework entry points:
  mac_test_reflect_mbuf_icmp(), mac_test_reflect_mbuf_tcp(),
  mac_test_check_vnode_deleteextattr(), mac_test_check_vnode_listextattr().
