This series makes it so that the idle domain is started privileged under the
default policy, which the SILO policy inherits, and under the flask policy. It
then introduces a new one-way XSM hook, xsm_transition_running, that is hooked
by an XSM policy to transition the idle domain to its running privilege level.

Changes in v8:
- adjusted panic messages in arm and x86 setup.c to be less than 80cols
- fixed comment line that went over 80col
- added line in patch #1 commit message to clarify the need is for domain
  creation

Changes in v7:
- adjusted error message in default and flask xsm_set_system_active hooks
- merged panic messages in arm and x86 setup.c to a single line

Changes in v6:
- readded the setting of is_privileged in flask_set_system_active()
- clarified comment on is_privileged in flask_set_system_active()
- added ASSERT on is_privileged and self_sid in flask_set_system_active()
- fixed err code returned on Arm for xsm_set_system_active() panic message

Changes in v5:
- dropped setting is_privileged in flask_set_system_active()
- added err code returned by xsm_set_system_active() to panic message

Changes in v4:
- reworded patch 1 commit messaged
- fixed whitespace to coding style
- fixed comment to coding style

Changes in v3:
- renamed *_transition_running() to *_set_system_active()
- changed the XSM hook set_system_active() from void to int return
- added ASSERT check for the expected privilege level each XSM policy expected
- replaced a check against is_privileged in each arch with checking the return
  value from the call to xsm_set_system_active()

Changes in v2:
- renamed flask_domain_runtime_security() to flask_transition_running()
- added the missed assignment of self_sid

There are new capabilities, dom0less and hyperlaunch, that introduce internal
hypervisor logic, which needs to make resource allocation calls that are
protected by XSM access checks. The need for these resource allocations are
necessary for dom0less and hyperlaunch when they are constructing the initial
domain(s).  This creates an issue as a subset of the hypervisor code is
executed under a system domain, the idle domain, that is represented by a
per-CPU non-privileged struct domain. To enable these new capabilities to
function correctly but in a controlled manner, this commit changes the idle
system domain to be created as a privileged domain under the default policy and
demoted before transitioning to running. A new XSM hook,
xsm_set_system_active(), is introduced to allow each XSM policy type to demote
the idle domain appropriately for that policy type. In the case of SILO, it
inherits the default policy's hook for xsm_set_system_active().

For flask, a stub is added to ensure that flask policy system will function
correctly with this patch until flask is extended with support for starting the
idle domain privileged and properly demoting it on the call to
xsm_set_system_active().

This commit implements full support for starting the idle domain privileged by
introducing a new flask label xenboot_t which the idle domain is labeled with
at creation.  It then provides the implementation for the XSM hook
xsm_set_system_active to relabel the idle domain to the existing xen_t flask
label.

In the reference flask policy a new macro, xen_build_domain(target), is
introduced for creating policies for dom0less/hyperlaunch allowing the
hypervisor to create and assign the necessary resources for domain
construction.

Hmm, here and on patch 2 you've lost Rahul's R-b and T-b, afaict.

erg, you are right, my apologies. Would you like me to respin as v9 to
get it in there, so it is not lost?

Not sure; much depends on who would commit this if this ends up being
the final version. (If you re-send, I'd suggest v8.1 rather than v9.)

I am still debugging, but I now have a dom0 crashing due to an AVC that
is being tripped with this patch applied to the tip of staging. I just
wanted to give a heads-up, and I will follow back up once I can
determine the root cause.

Please ignore and my apologies for the noise. The updated policy file
was not getting synced into the test environment.

Hi,

It seems that this series is stale for a while with author's action needed for
Patch#1 [1] (and probably also need ack from flask maintainer for [2]). So this email
is a gentle reminder about this series. Thanks!

[1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/xen-devel/patch/20220531145646.10062-2-dpsmith@apertussolutions.com/
[2] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/xen-devel/patch/20220531145646.10062-3-dpsmith@apertussolutions.com/

Kind regards,
Henry
