2015-01-25Add security hooks to binder and implement the hooks for SELinux.Stephen Smalley1-0/+26
Add security hooks to the binder and implement the hooks for SELinux. The security hooks enable security modules such as SELinux to implement controls over binder IPC. The security hooks include support for controlling what process can become the binder context manager (binder_set_context_mgr), controlling the ability of a process to invoke a binder transaction/IPC to another process (binder_transaction), controlling the ability of a process to transfer a binder reference to another process (binder_transfer_binder), and controlling the ability of a process to transfer an open file to another process (binder_transfer_file). These hooks have been included in the Android kernel trees since Android 4.3. (Updated to reflect upstream relocation and changes to the binder driver, changes to the LSM audit data structures, coding style cleanups, and to add inline documentation for the hooks).

2014-10-20android: binder: remove binder.hGreg Kroah-Hartman2-31/+5
binder.h isn't needed to just include a uapi file and set a single define, so move it into binder.c to save a few lines of code. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2014-10-20staging: android: binder: move to the "real" part of the kernelGreg Kroah-Hartman5-0/+4072
The Android binder code has been "stable" for many years now. No matter what comes in the future, we are going to have to support this API, so might as well move it to the "real" part of the kernel as there's no real work that needs to be done to the existing code.
