include/linux/lsm_hooks.h reports the result of the LSM infrastructure to the callers, not what LSMs should return to the LSM infrastructure.
Clarify that and add that returning 1 from the LSMs means calling __vm_enough_memory() with cap_sys_admin set, 0 without.

BPF LSM defines a bpf_lsm_*() function for each LSM hook, so that security modules can define their own implementation for the desired hooks.
Unfortunately, BPF LSM does not restrict which values security modules can return (for non-void LSM hooks). Security modules might follow the conventions stated in include/linux/lsm_hooks.h, or put arbitrary values.
This could cause big troubles, as the kernel is not ready to handle possibly malicious return values from LSMs. Until now, it was not the case, as each LSM is carefully reviewed and it won't be accepted if it does not meet the return value conventions.
The biggest problem is when an LSM returns a positive value, instead of a negative value, as it could be converted to a pointer. Since such pointer escapes the IS_ERR() check, its use later in the code can cause unpredictable consequences (e.g. invalid memory access).
Another problem is returning zero when an LSM is supposed to have done some operations. For example, the inode_init_security hook expects that their implementations return zero only if they set the name and value of the new xattr to be added to the new inode. Otherwise, other kernel subsystems might encounter unexpected conditions leading to a crash (e.g. evm_protected_xattr_common() getting NULL as argument).
Finally, there are LSM hooks which are supposed to return just one as positive value, or non-negative values. Also in these cases, although it seems less critical, it is safer to return to callers of the LSM infrastructure more precisely what they expect.
As eBPF allows code outside the kernel to run, it is its responsibility to ensure that only expected values are returned to LSM infrastructure callers.
Create four new BTF ID sets, respectively for hooks that can return positive values, only one as positive value, that cannot return zero, and that cannot return negative values. Create also corresponding functions to check if the hook a security module is attached to belongs to one of the defined sets.
Finally, check in the eBPF verifier the value returned by security modules for each attached LSM hook, and return -EINVAL (the security module cannot run) if the hook implementation does not satisfy the hook return value policy.

The problem is that a new LSM_HOOK definition would apply to every LSM hook, while we need the ability to select subsets.
I was thinking, but I didn't check yet, what about using BTF_ID_FLAGS, introducing a flag for each interval (<0, 0, 1, >1) and setting the appropriate flags for each LSM hook?

case, as each LSM is carefully reviewed and it won't be accepted if it does not meet the return value conventions.
The biggest problem is when an LSM returns a positive value, instead of a negative value, as it could be converted to a pointer. Since such pointer escapes the IS_ERR() check, its use later in the code can cause unpredictable consequences (e.g. invalid memory access).
Another problem is returning zero when an LSM is supposed to have done some operations. For example, the inode_init_security hook expects that their implementations return zero only if they set the name and value of the new xattr to be added to the new inode. Otherwise, other kernel subsystems might encounter unexpected conditions leading to a crash (e.g. evm_protected_xattr_common() getting NULL as argument).
Finally, there are LSM hooks which are supposed to return just one as positive value, or non-negative values. Also in these cases, although it seems less critical, it is safer to return to callers of the LSM infrastructure more precisely what they expect.
As eBPF allows code outside the kernel to run, it is its responsibility to ensure that only expected values are returned to LSM infrastructure callers.
Create four new BTF ID sets, respectively for hooks that can return positive values, only one as positive value, that cannot return zero, and that cannot return negative values. Create also corresponding functions to check if the hook a security module is attached to belongs to one of the defined sets.
Finally, check in the eBPF verifier the value returned by security modules for each attached LSM hook, and return -EINVAL (the security module cannot run) if the hook implementation does not satisfy the hook return value policy.

Uhm, why not? If you store the flags in the BTF ID set, the implementation would be something like this.
Assuming that a hook definition becomes:
LSM_HOOK(int, 0, LSM_RET_NEG | LSM_RET_ZERO, path_unlink, const struct path *dir, struct dentry *dentry)
In bpf_lsm.c, we would have:
#include <linux/lsm_hook_defs.h> #undef LSM_HOOK
#define LSM_HOOK(RET, DEFAULT, RET_FLAGS, NAME, ...) \ BTF_ID_FLAGS(func, bpf_lsm_##NAME, RET_FLAGS) BTF_SET_START(bpf_lsm_hooks) #include <linux/lsm_hook_defs.h> #undef LSM_HOOK BTF_SET_END(bpf_lsm_hooks)
bool bpf_lsm_ret_value_allowed(u32 btf_id, ...) { u32 *flags = btf_id_set8_contains(&bpf_lsm_hooks, btf_id);
if (lsm_ret < 0 && !(*flags & LSM_RET_NEG)) return false;

From: Roberto Sassu roberto.sassu@huawei.com
include/linux/lsm_hooks.h reports the result of the LSM infrastructure to the callers, not what LSMs should return to the LSM infrastructure.
Clarify that and add that returning 1 from the LSMs means calling __vm_enough_memory() with cap_sys_admin set, 0 without.
