90ab5ee941 module_param: make bool parameters really bool (drivers & misc)
module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int.  In
fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
trick.

It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option.  For this version
it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version.

3a2dc8382a AppArmor: Fix security_task_setrlimit logic for 2.6.36 changes
2.6.36 introduced the abilitiy to specify the task that is having its
rlimits set.  Update mediation to ensure that confined tasks can only
set their own group_leader as expected by current policy.

Add TODO note about extending policy to support setting other tasks
rlimits.

c88d4c7b04 AppArmor: core policy routines
The basic routines and defines for AppArmor policy.  AppArmor policy
is defined by a few basic components.
      profiles - the basic unit of confinement contain all the information
                 to enforce policy on a task

                 Profiles tend to be named after an executable that they
                 will attach to but this is not required.
      namespaces - a container for a set of profiles that will be used
                 during attachment and transitions between profiles.
      sids - which provide a unique id for each profile

0ed3b28ab8 AppArmor: mediation of non file objects
ipc:
AppArmor ipc is currently limited to mediation done by file mediation
and basic ptrace tests.  Improved mediation is a wip.

rlimits:
AppArmor provides basic abilities to set and control rlimits at
a per profile level.  Only resources specified in a profile are controled
or set.  AppArmor rules set the hard limit to a value <= to the current
hard limit (ie. they can not currently raise hard limits), and if
necessary will lower the soft limit to the new hard limit value.

AppArmor does not track resource limits to reset them when a profile
is left so that children processes inherit the limits set by the
parent even if they are not confined by the same profile.

Capabilities:  AppArmor provides a per profile mask of capabilities,
that will further restrict.

898127c34e AppArmor: functions for domain transitions
AppArmor routines for controling domain transitions, which can occur at
exec or through self directed change_profile/change_hat calls.

Unconfined tasks are checked at exec against the profiles in the confining
profile namespace to determine if a profile should be attached to the task.

Confined tasks execs are controlled by the profile which provides rules
determining which execs are allowed and if so which profiles should be
transitioned to.

Self directed domain transitions allow a task to request transition
to a given profile.  If the transition is allowed then the profile will
be applied, either immeditately or at exec time depending on the request.
Immeditate self directed transitions have several security limitations
but have uses in setting up stub transition profiles and other limited
cases.

6380bd8ddf AppArmor: file enforcement routines
AppArmor does files enforcement via pathname matching.  Matching is done
at file open using a dfa match engine.  Permission is against the final
file object not parent directories, ie. the traversal of directories
as part of the file match is implicitly allowed.  In the case of nonexistant
files (creation) permissions are checked against the target file not the
directory.  eg. In case of creating the file /dir/new, permissions are
checked against the match /dir/new not against /dir/.

The permissions for matches are currently stored in the dfa accept table,
but this will change to allow for dfa reuse and also to allow for sharing
of wider accept states.

63e2b42377 AppArmor: userspace interfaces
The /proc/<pid>/attr/* interface is used for process introspection and
commands.  While the apparmorfs interface is used for global introspection
and loading and removing policy.

The interface currently only contains the files necessary for loading
policy, and will be extended in the future to include sysfs style
single per file introspection inteface.

The old AppArmor 2.4 interface files have been removed into a compatibility
patch, that distros can use to maintain backwards compatibility.

e06f75a6a2 AppArmor: dfa match engine
A basic dfa matching engine based off the dfa engine in the Dragon
Book.  It uses simple row comb compression with a check field.

This allows AppArmor to do pattern matching in linear time, and also
avoids stack issues that an nfa based engine may have.  The dfa
engine uses a byte based comparison, with all values being valid.
Any potential character encoding are handled user side when the dfa
tables are created.  By convention AppArmor uses \0 to separate two
dependent path matches since \0 is not a valid path character
(this is done in the link permission check).

The dfa tables are generated in user space and are verified at load
time to be internally consistent.

There are several future improvements planned for the dfa engine:
* The dfa engine may be converted to a hybrid nfa-dfa engine, with
  a fixed size limited stack.  This would allow for size time
  tradeoffs, by inserting limited nfa states to help control
  state explosion that can occur with dfas.
* The dfa engine may pickup the ability to do limited dynamic
  variable matching, instead of fixing all variables at policy
  load time.
