Commit 756125289285 ("audit: always check the netlink payload length in audit_receive_msg()") fixed a number of missing message length checks, but forgot to check the length of userspace generated audit records. The good news is that you need CAP_AUDIT_WRITE to submit userspace audit records, which is generally only given to trusted processes, so the impact should be limited.

The patch descriptions are far more lengthy than the patches themselves, which is a very good thing for patches this size IMHO. The patches pass our test suites and a quick summary is below: - Stop logging inode information when updating an audit file watch. Since we are not changing the inode, or the fact that we are watching the associated file, the inode information is just noise that we can do without. - Fix a problem where mandatory audit records were missing their accompanying audit records (e.g. SYSCALL records were missing).

2020-03-12audit: trigger accompanying records when no rules presentRichard Guy Briggs
When there are no audit rules registered, mandatory records (config, etc.) are missing their accompanying records (syscall, proctitle, etc.). This is due to audit context dummy set on syscall entry based on absence of rules that signals that no other records are to be printed. Clear the dummy bit if any record is generated. The proctitle context and dummy checks are pointless since the proctitle record will not be printed if no syscall records are printed.

The AUDIT_FILTER_TYPE name is vague and misleading due to not describing where or when the filter is applied and obsolete due to its available filter fields having been expanded. Userspace has already renamed it from AUDIT_FILTER_TYPE to AUDIT_FILTER_EXCLUDE without checking if it already exists. The userspace maintainer assures that as long as it is set to the same value it will not be a problem since the userspace code does not treat compiler warnings as errors.

Some functions definitions have either the initial open brace and/or the closing brace outside of column 1. Move those braces to column 1. This allows various function analyzers like gnu complexity to work properly for these modified functions.

2018-03-06audit: do not panic on invalid boot parameterGreg Edwards
If you pass in an invalid audit boot parameter value, e.g. "audit=off", the kernel panics very early in boot before the regular console is initialized. Unless you have earlyprintk enabled, there is no indication of what the problem is on the console. Convert the panic() calls to pr_err(), and leave auditing enabled if an invalid parameter value was passed in. Modify the parameter to also accept "on" or "off" as valid values, and update the documentation accordingly.

2018-02-23audit: track the owner of the command mutex ourselvesPaul Moore
Evidently the __mutex_owner() function was never intended for use outside the core mutex code, so build a thing locking wrapper around the mutex code which allows us to track the mutex owner. One, arguably positive, side effect is that this allows us to hide the audit_cmd_mutex inside of kernel/audit.c behind the lock/unlock functions.

2017-11-10audit: ensure that 'audit=1' actually enables audit for PID 1Paul Moore
Prior to this patch we enabled audit in audit_init(), which is too late for PID 1 as the standard initcalls are run after the PID 1 task is forked. This means that we never allocate an audit_context (see audit_alloc()) for PID 1 and therefore miss a lot of audit events generated by PID 1. This patch enables audit as early as possible to help ensure that when PID 1 is forked it can allocate an audit_context if required.

2017-09-05audit: Reduce overhead using a coarse clockMel Gorman
Commit 2115bb250f26 ("audit: Use timespec64 to represent audit timestamps") noted that audit timestamps were not y2038 safe and used a 64-bit timestamp. In itself, this makes sense but the conversion was from CURRENT_TIME to ktime_get_real_ts64() which is a heavier call to record an accurate timestamp which is required in some, but not all, cases. The impact is that when auditd is running without any rules that all syscalls have higher overhead. This is visible in the sysbench-thread benchmark as a 11.5% performance hit. That benchmark is dumb as rocks but it's also visible in redis as an 8-10% hit on all operations which is of greater concern. It is somewhat stupid of audit to track syscalls without any rules related to syscalls but that is how it behaves. The overhead can be directly measured with perf comparing 4.9 with 4.12 4.9 7.76% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __schedule 7.62% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] _raw_spin_lock 7.37% sysbench libpthread-2.22.so [.] __lll_lock_elision 7.29% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [.] syscall_return_via_sysret 6.59% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] native_sched_clock 5.21% sysbench libc-2.22.so [.] __sched_yield 4.38% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] entry_SYSCALL_64 4.28% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] do_syscall_64 3.49% sysbench libpthread-2.22.so [.] __lll_unlock_elision 3.13% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __audit_syscall_exit 2.87% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] update_curr 2.73% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] pick_next_task_fair 2.31% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] syscall_trace_enter 2.20% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __audit_syscall_entry ..... 0.00% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] read_tsc 4.12 7.84% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __schedule 7.05% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] _raw_spin_lock 6.57% sysbench libpthread-2.22.so [.] __lll_lock_elision 6.50% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [.] syscall_return_via_sysret 5.95% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] read_tsc 5.71% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] native_sched_clock 4.78% sysbench libc-2.22.so [.] __sched_yield 4.30% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] entry_SYSCALL_64 3.94% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] do_syscall_64 3.37% sysbench libpthread-2.22.so [.] __lll_unlock_elision 3.32% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __audit_syscall_exit 2.91% sysbench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __getnstimeofday64 Note the additional overhead from read_tsc which goes from 0% to 5.95%. This is on a single-socket E3-1230 but similar overheads have been measured on an older machine which the patch also eliminates. The patch in question has no explanation as to why a fully-accurate timestamp is required and is likely an oversight. Using a coarser, but monotically increasing, timestamp the overhead can be eliminated. While it can be worked around by configuring or disabling audit, it's tricky enough to detect that a kernel fix is justified. With this patch, we see the following; sysbenchthread 4.9.0 4.12.0 4.12.0 vanilla vanilla coarse-v1r1 Amean 1 1.49 ( 0.00%) 1.66 ( -11.42%) 1.51 ( -1.34%) Amean 3 1.48 ( 0.00%) 1.65 ( -11.45%) 1.50 ( -0.96%) Amean 5 1.49 ( 0.00%) 1.67 ( -12.31%) 1.51 ( -1.83%) Amean 7 1.49 ( 0.00%) 1.66 ( -11.72%) 1.50 ( -0.67%) Amean 12 1.48 ( 0.00%) 1.65 ( -11.57%) 1.52 ( -2.89%) Amean 16 1.49 ( 0.00%) 1.65 ( -11.13%) 1.51 ( -1.73%) The benchmark is reporting the time required for different thread counts to lock/unlock a private mutex which, while dense, demonstrates the syscall overhead. This is showing that 4.12 took a 11-12% hit but the overhead is almost eliminated by the patch. While the variance is not reported here, it's well within the noise with the patch applied.
