global audit trail configuration. This allows applications consuming
audit trails to specify parameters for which audit records are of
interest, including selecting records not required by the global trail.
Allowing application interest specification without changing the global
configuration allows intrusion detection systems to run without
interfering with global auditing or each other (if multiple are
present). To implement this:
- Kernel audit records now carry a flag to indicate whether they have
been selected by the global trail or by the audit pipe subsystem,
set during record commit, so that this information is available
after BSM conversion when delivering the BSM to the trail and audit
pipes in the audit worker thread asynchronously. Preselection by
either record target will cause the record to be kept.
- Similar changes to preselection when the audit record is created
when the system call is entering: consult both the global trail and
pipes.
- au_preselect() now accepts the class in order to avoid repeatedly
looking up the mask for each preselection test.
- Define a series of ioctls that allow applications to specify whether
they want to track the global trail, or program their own
preselection parameters: they may specify their own flags and naflags
masks, similar to the global masks of the same name, as well as a set
of per-auid masks. They also set a per-pipe mode specifying whether
they track the global trail, or user their own -- the door is left
open for future additional modes. A new ioctl is defined to allow a
user process to flush the current audit pipe queue, which can be used
after reprogramming pre-selection to make sure that only records of
interest are received in future reads.
- Audit pipe data structures are extended to hold the additional fields
necessary to support preselection. By default, audit pipes track the
global trail, so "praudit /dev/auditpipe" will track the global audit
trail even though praudit doesn't program the audit pipe selection
model.
- Comment about the complexities of potentially adding partial read
support to audit pipes.
By using a set of ioctls, applications can select which records are of
interest, and toggle the preselection mode.

knowledge of user vs. kernel audit records into
audit_worker_process_record(). This largely confines vnode
knowledge to audit_record_write(), but avoids that logic knowing
about BSM as opposed to byte streams. This will allow us to
improve our ability to support real-time audit stream processing
by audit pipe consumers while auditing is disabled, but this
support is not yet complete.

Break out logic to call audit_record_write() and handle error
conditions into audit_worker_process_record(). This will be the
future home of some logic now present in audit_record_write()
also.

- Clarify and clean up AUR_ types to match Solaris.
- Clean up use of host vs. network byte order for IP addresses.
- Remove combined user/kernel implementations of some token creation
calls, such as au_to_file(), header calls, etc.
Obtained from: TrustedBSD Project
- Cleanup of AUR_ data types.
- Comment fixes.
- au_close_token() definition.
- Break out of kernel vs. user space token interfaces for headers.
Note: this may briefly break the kernel build until other kernel files are
updated to match.

- Use AU_TO_WRITE and AU_NO_TO_WRITE for the 'keep' argument to au_close();
previously we used hard-coded 0 and 1 values.
- Add man page for au_open(), au_write(), au_close(), and
au_close_buffer().
- Support a more complete range of data types for the arbitrary data token:
add AUR_CHAR (alias to AUR_BYTE), remove AUR_LONG, add AUR_INT32 (alias
to AUR_INT), add AUR_INT64.
- Add au_close_token(), which allows writing a single token_t to a memory
buffer. Not likely to be used much by applications, but useful for
writing test tools.
- Modify au_to_file() so that it accepts a timeval in user space, not just
kernel -- this is not a Solaris BSM API so can be modified without
causing compatibility issues.
- Define a new API, au_to_header32_tm(), which adds a struct timeval
argument to the ordinary au_to_header32(), which is now implemented by
wrapping au_to_header32_tm() and calling gettimeofday(). #ifndef KERNEL
the APIs that invoke gettimeofday(), rather than having a variable
definition. Don't try to retrieve time zone information using
gettimeofday(), as it's not needed, and introduces possible failure
modes.
- Don't perform byte order transformations on the addr/machine fields of
the terminal ID that appears in the process32/subject32 tokens. These
are assumed to be IP addresses, and as such, to be in network byte
order.
- Universally, APIs now assume that IP addresses and ports are provided
in network byte order. APIs now generally provide these types in
network byte order when decoding.
- Beginnings of an OpenBSM test framework can now be found in openbsm/test.
This code is not built or installed by default.
- auditd now assigns more appropriate syslog levels to its debugging and
error information.
- Support for audit filters introduced: audit filters are dynamically
loaded shared objects that run in the context of a new daemon,
auditfilterd. The daemon reads from an audit pipe and feeds both BSM and
parsed versions of records to shared objects using a module API. This
will provide a framework for the writing of intrusion detection services.
- New utility API, audit_submit(), added to capture common elements of audit
record submission for many applications.

Eliminate unnecessary, recursive acquisitions and releases of the page

Reduce the scope of the page queues lock in pmap_remove_pages().
Before the change if a hardware crypto driver was loaded after
the software crypto driver, calling crypto_newsession() with
hard=0, will always choose software crypto.
By using a pointer to struct dos_partition, we implicitly tell the
compiler that the pointer is 4-bytes aligned, even though we know
that's not the case. The fact that we only dereference the pointer
to access a byte-wide field (field dp_ptyp) is not a guarantee that
the compiler will in fact use a byte-wide load. On some platforms
it's more efficient to use long word or quad word loads and use
bit-shifting and bit-masking to get the intended byte. On those
platforms an misaligned load will be the result.
The fix is to use byte-wide pointer arithmetic based on sizeof() and
offsetof() to avoid invalid casts which avoids that the compiler
makes invalid assumptions.

axe_cmd() calls. Without this the device can get confused if multiple
threads attempt these operations concurrently. The problem was
easily reproducible by running "ifconfig axe0" in a loop because
eventually it would conflict with axe_tick_task().
A similar approach is probably required in all USB ethernet drivers.
- Add defines with block length for each HMAC algorithm.
- Add AES_BLOCK_LEN define which is an alias for RIJNDAEL128_BLOCK_LEN.
- Add NULL_BLOCK_LEN define.
Move the code for printing timer statistics into a test function instead of
an ifdef (accessible via the debug.acpi.hpet_test tunable). Also use defines
for register offsets instead of magic values.
