From 3bb857e47e49f72352249c938aa8b9159d636530 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mickaël Salaün Date: Wed, 10 May 2017 22:48:48 +0200 Subject: LSM: Enable multiple calls to security_add_hooks() for the same LSM MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The commit d69dece5f5b6 ("LSM: Add /sys/kernel/security/lsm") extend security_add_hooks() with a new parameter to register the LSM name, which may be useful to make the list of currently loaded LSM available to userspace. However, there is no clean way for an LSM to split its hook declarations into multiple files, which may reduce the mess with all the included files (needed for LSM hook argument types) and make the source code easier to review and maintain. This change allows an LSM to register multiple times its hook while keeping a consistent list of LSM names as described in Documentation/security/LSM.txt . The list reflects the order in which checks are made. This patch only check for the last registered LSM. If an LSM register multiple times its hooks, interleaved with other LSM registrations (which should not happen), its name will still appear in the same order that the hooks are called, hence multiple times. To sum up, "capability,selinux,foo,foo" will be replaced with "capability,selinux,foo", however "capability,foo,selinux,foo" will remain as is.
