Audit link denied events emit disjointed records when audit is disabled.
No records should be emitted when audit is disabled.

Audit link denied events generate duplicate PATH records which disagree
in different ways from symlink and hardlink denials.
audit_log_link_denied() should not directly generate PATH records.
While we're at it, remove the now useless struct path argument.

I have no objection to the v2 change of removing the link parameter,
but this patch can not be merged as-is because the v1 patch has
already been merged into audit/next (as stated on the mailing list).
You need to respin this patch against audit/next and redo the
subject/description to indicate that you are just removing the unused
link parameter in this updated patch.

Yes, I self-NACKed that patch.
https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-audit/2018-March/msg00070.html
Is it not possible to drop it, or would you have to do a revert to avoid
a rebase?

So the way I had it in my devel tree rather than squashing it...

Yes, it is possible to drop a patch from the audit/next patch stack,
but dropping patches is considered *very* bad form and not something I
want to do without a Very Good Reason. While the v2 patch is the
"right" patch, the v1 patch is not dangerous, so I would rather you
just build on top of what is currently in audit/next.

My fault. It was applied to a stale tree:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/audit.git
A self-NACKed patch wasn't removed from the upstream tree as hoped. A
new patch is already in the works.

Audit link denied events for symlinks had duplicate PATH records rather
than just updating the existing PATH record. Update the symlink's PATH
record with the current dentry and inode information.

Why didn't you include this in patch 4/4 like I asked during the
previous review?

Yes, I just saw that ... I hadn't seen your replies on the v1 patches
until I had finished reviewing v2. I just replied to that mail in the
v1 thread, but basically you need to figure out what is necessary here
and let us know. If I have to figure it out it likely isn't going to
get done with enough soak time prior to the upcoming merge window.

Steve? I was hoping you could chime in here.
I'd just include it for completeness unless Steve thinks it will stand
on its own and doesn't want the overhead.

If that's the argument, I'd rather just include it. We've been burned
by not including stuff in the past and fixing those omissions has
proven to be a major source of contention.

If the CWD record will always be the same as the PARENT record, then we
do not need the parent record. Duplicate information is bad. Like all
the duplicate SYSCALL information.

The CWD record could be different from the PARENT record, since I could
have SYMLINK=/tmp/test/symlink, CWD=/tmp, PARENT=/tmp/test. Does the
parent record even matter since it might not be a directory operation
like creat, unlink or rename?

There's 2 issues. One is creating the path if what we have is relative.
In this situation CWD should be enough. But if the question is whether
the PARENT directory should be included...what if the PARENT
permissions do not allow the successful name resolution? In that case
we might only get a PARENT record no? In that case we would need it.

I think in the case of symlink creation, normal file create code path
would be in effect, and would properly log parent and symlink source
file paths (if a rule to log it was in effect) which is not something
that would trigger a symlink link denied error. Symlink link denied
happens only when trying to actually follow the link before
resolving the target path of a read/write/exec of the symlink target.
If the parent permissions of the link's target don't allow successful
name resolution then the symlink link denied condition isn't met, but
rather any other rule that applies to the target path.

Then I guess the PARENT record is not needed.

I'm guessing you are in the process of tracking all this down, but if
not, lets get to a point where we can answer this definitively and not
guess :)

I was fairly certain but being polite, expecting confirmation or
possibly correction if I've overlooked something.
Additionally, this denial message only happens in certain parts of the
permission check for symlinks:
/proc/sys/fs/protected_symlinks == 1
and follower and link owner don't match
and parent sticky and world-writable
and link parent and link owner don't match
If you want other symlink denials logged, you need to set a rule for the
target filtering on operation failure such as unix file permissions.
The similar situation exists for hardlinks.

Audit link denied events for symlinks were missing the parent PATH
record. Add it. Since the full pathname may not be available,
reconstruct it from the path in the nameidata supplied.

Since we are already checking audit_dummy_context() above we don't
need to check it again in audit_inode(), you should just call
__audit_inode() directly. As a reminder, make sure you convert
LOOKUP_PARENT to AUDIT_INODE_PARENT.

So, if we now only emit the ANOM_LINK event when audit is enabled, we
should get rid of all the duplicate information in that record. The
SYSCALL record has all that information.
