[PATCH security-next 0/2]: switch selinux and smack to pernet ops

[PATCH security-next 0/2]: switch selinux and smack to pernet ops

[Florian Westphal]

Back in the day we only had global netfilter hooks.

Nowadays netfilter hooks are per net namespace, but we still provide the old
'nf_register_hook' api, which will place the hooks in all current and future
net namespaces.

smack and selinux are among the last users of the old api, this
switches both over to pernet_ops.

This would also allow to only enable hooks in a netns when
they are needed in that namespace, but this isn't done here.

The old api makes it necessary to keep rather ugly code in
the netfilter core (e.g. iterating net namespaces under rtnl mutex...)
and it has a race w. rmmod. We'd like to remove it.

If you prefer this gets merged via nf-next tree please ack and I'll
resubmit (with acks) to netfilter-devel@ list.

I will test out this patch and report back.
If all goes well I will include it in the Smack
tree for 4.13.

Looks fine to me, I'm going to queue this up for after the v4.12 merge window.

Thanks Casey.

We're very much looking forward to getting rid of all these
nf_register_hooks() calls all over the tree. This patch helps us going
in that direction.

selinux is the last user of this api left in the tree.
Once Paul applies my patch to convert to pernet_ops we only have to wait until
all the changes are in linus tree.

Then you only need to merge linus tree into nf.git and then I will
submit the the removal patch.

I think we can get rid of old api in 4.13.

Thanks for the reminder, since the SELinux patch didn't go to the
SELinux mailing list it got "lost" during the post-merge-window merge.
Regardless, it's merged into selinux/next and it should go upstream
during the next merge window.
