[PATCH] selinux: Use task_alloc hook rather than task_create hook

[PATCH] selinux: Use task_alloc hook rather than task_create hook

[Tetsuo Handa]

This patch is a preparation for getting rid of task_create hook because
task_create hook which can do what task_create hook can do was revived.

Creating a new thread is unlikely prohibited by security policy, for
fork()/execve()/exit() is fundamental of how processes are managed in
Unix. If a program is known to create a new thread, it is likely that
permission to create a new thread is given to that program. Therefore,
a situation where security_task_create() returns an error is likely that
the program was exploited and lost control. Even if SELinux failed to
check permission to create a thread at security_task_create(), SELinux
can later check it at security_task_alloc(). Since the new thread is not
yet visible from the rest of the system, nobody can do bad things using
the new thread. What we waste will be limited to some initialization
steps such as dup_task_struct(), copy_creds() and audit_alloc() in
copy_process(). We can tolerate these overhead for unlikely situation.

Therefore, this patch changes SELinux to use task_alloc hook rather than
task_create hook so that we can remove task_create hook.

Oops, copy&paste error. Yes, I meant task_alloc hook.

When are you planning to remove the task_create() hook?

I have no objection to this patch, and I plan to merge it, but merging
it now would require rebasing the selinux/next and I try to keep from
rebasing during the development cycle unless absolutely necessary.  I
think this can wait until after the next merge window, what do you
think?

When are you planning to remove the task_create() hook?

I have no objection to this patch, and I plan to merge it, but merging
it now would require rebasing the selinux/next and I try to keep from
rebasing during the development cycle unless absolutely necessary.  I
think this can wait until after the next merge window, what do you
think?

Nothing to hurry. SELinux is the only user. We can wait as much as you want.
