(Having a mutable filesystem means pinning is mutable too, but having the sysctl allows for easy testing on systems with a mutable filesystem.) + +It's also possible to exclude specific file types from LoadPin using kernel +command line option "``loadpin.exclude``". By default, all files are +included, but they can be excluded using kernel command line option such +as "``loadpin.exclude=kernel-module,kexec-image``". This allows to use +different mechanisms such as ``CONFIG_MODULE_SIG`` and +``CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG`` to verify kernel module and kernel image while +still use LoadPin to protect the integrity of other files kernel loads. The +full list of valid file types can be found in ``kernel_read_file_str`` +defined in ``include/linux/fs.h``. diff --git a/security/loadpin/loadpin.c b/security/loadpin/loadpin.c index 055fb0a64169..9e826041da41 100644 --- a/security/loadpin/loadpin.c +++ b/security/loadpin/loadpin.c @@ -45,6 +45,8 @@ static void report_load(const char *origin, struct file *file, char *operation) } static int enforce = IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SECURITY_LOADPIN_ENFORCE); +static char *exclude_read_files[READING_MAX_ID]; +static int ignore_read_file_id[READING_MAX_ID] __ro_after_init; static struct super_block *pinned_root; static DEFINE_SPINLOCK(pinned_root_spinlock); @@ -129,6 +131,13 @@ static int loadpin_read_file(struct file *file, enum kernel_read_file_id id) struct super_block *load_root; const char *origin = kernel_read_file_id_str(id); + /* If the file id is excluded, ignore the pinning. */ + if ((unsigned int)id < ARRAY_SIZE(ignore_read_file_id) && + ignore_read_file_id[id]) { + report_load(origin, file, "pinning-excluded"); + return 0; + } + /* This handles the older init_module API that has a NULL file. */ if (!file) { if (!enforce) { @@ -187,10 +196,47 @@ static struct security_hook_list loadpin_hooks[] __lsm_ro_after_init = { LSM_HOOK_INIT(kernel_load_data, loadpin_load_data), }; +static void __init parse_exclude(void) +{ + int i, j; + char *cur; + + /* + * Make sure all the arrays stay within expected sizes.
