* rust: file: add `Kuid` wrapperAlice Ryhl2024-09-301-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds a wrapper around `kuid_t` called `Kuid`. This allows us to define various operations on kuids such as equality and current_euid. It also lets us provide conversions from kuid into userspace values. Rust Binder needs these operations because it needs to compare kuids for equality, and it needs to tell userspace about the pid and uid of incoming transactions. To read kuids from a `struct task_struct`, you must currently use various #defines that perform the appropriate field access under an RCU read lock. Currently, we do not have a Rust wrapper for rcu_read_lock, which means that for this patch, there are two ways forward: 1. Inline the methods into Rust code, and use __rcu_read_lock directly rather than the rcu_read_lock wrapper. This gives up lockdep for these usages of RCU. 2. Wrap the various #defines in helpers and call the helpers from Rust. This patch uses the second option. One possible disadvantage of the second option is the possible introduction of speculation gadgets, but as discussed in [1], the risk appears to be acceptable. Of course, once a wrapper for rcu_read_lock is available, it is preferable to use that over either of the two above approaches.

* rust: security: add abstraction for secctxAlice Ryhl2024-09-301-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add an abstraction for viewing the string representation of a security context. This is needed by Rust Binder because it has a feature where a process can view the string representation of the security context for incoming transactions. The process can use that to authenticate incoming transactions, and since the feature is provided by the kernel, the process can trust that the security context is legitimate. This abstraction makes the following assumptions about the C side: * When a call to `security_secid_to_secctx` is successful, it returns a pointer and length. The pointer references a byte string and is valid for reading for that many bytes. * The string may be referenced until `security_release_secctx` is called. * If CONFIG_SECURITY is set, then the three methods mentioned in rust/helpers are available without a helper. (That is, they are not a #define or `static inline`.)

* rust: cred: add Rust abstraction for `struct cred`Wedson Almeida Filho2024-09-301-0/+76
Add a wrapper around `struct cred` called `Credential`, and provide functionality to get the `Credential` associated with a `File`. Rust Binder must check the credentials of processes when they attempt to perform various operations, and these checks usually take a `&Credential` as parameter. The security_binder_set_context_mgr function would be one example. This patch is necessary to access these security_* methods from Rust. This Rust abstraction makes the following assumptions about the C side: * `struct cred` is refcounted with `get_cred`/`put_cred`. * It's okay to transfer a `struct cred` across threads, that is, you do not need to call `put_cred` on the same thread as where you called `get_cred`. * The `euid` field of a `struct cred` never changes after initialization. * The `f_cred` field of a `struct file` never changes after initialization.
