* audit: shorten PATH cap values when zeroRichard Guy Briggs2018-12-031-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the vast majority of files (99.993% on a typical system) have no fcaps, display "0" instead of the full zero-padded 16 hex digits in the two PATH record cap_f* fields to save netlink bandwidth and disk space. Simply changing the format to %x won't work since the value is two (or possibly more in the future) 32-bit hexadecimal values concatenated and bits in higher order values will be misrepresented.

* audit: use current whenever possiblePaul Moore2018-11-261-17/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | There are many places, notably audit_log_task_info() and audit_log_exit(), that take task_struct pointers but in reality they are always working on the current task. This patch eliminates the task_struct arguments and uses current directly which allows a number of cleanups as well.

* audit: use ktime_get_coarse_real_ts64() for timestampsPaul Moore2018-07-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit c72051d5778a ("audit: use ktime_get_coarse_ts64() for time access") converted audit's use of current_kernel_time64() to the new ktime_get_coarse_ts64() function. Unfortunately this resulted in incorrect timestamps, e.g. events stamped with the year 1969 despite it being 2018. This patch corrects this by using ktime_get_coarse_real_ts64() just like the current_kernel_time64() wrapper.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. If this policy changes then checks if it already exists can be added at the same time.

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.

The kauditd_thread thread is always running so it can service the record queues and emit the multicast messages, if it happens to be just past the "main_queue" label, but before the "if (sk == NULL || ...)" if-statement which calls auditd_reset() when the new auditd connection is registered it could end up resetting the auditd connection, regardless of if it is valid or not. This is a rather small window and the variable nature of multi-core scheduling explains why this is proving rather difficult to reproduce." The fix is to have functions only call auditd_reset() when they believe that the kernel/auditd connection is still valid, e.g. non-NULL, and to have these callers pass their local copy of the auditd_connection pointer to auditd_reset() where it can be compared with the current connection state before resetting. If the caller has a stale state tracking pointer then the reset is ignored. We also make a small change to kauditd_thread() so that if the kernel/auditd connection is dead we skip the retry queue and send the records straight to the hold queue.

From a fixes perspective, the most important is likely the auditd connection tracking RCU fix; it was a rather brain dead bug that I'll take the blame for, but thankfully it didn't seem to affect many people (only one report). I think the patch subject lines and commit descriptions do a pretty good job of explaining the details and why the changes are important so I'll point you there instead of duplicating it here; as usual, if you have any questions you know where to find us.

| * audit: make sure we don't let the retry queue grow without boundsPaul Moore2017-04-101-35/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The retry queue is intended to provide a temporary buffer in the case of transient errors when communicating with auditd, it is not meant as a long life queue, that functionality is provided by the hold queue. This patch fixes a problem identified by Seth where the retry queue could grow uncontrollably if an auditd instance did not connect to the kernel to drain the queues. This commit fixes this by doing the following: * Make sure we always call auditd_reset() if we decide the connection with audit is really dead. There were some cases in kauditd_hold_skb() where we did not reset the connection, this patch relocates the reset calls to kauditd_thread() so all the error conditions are caught and the connection reset. As a side effect, this means we could move auditd_reset() and get rid of the forward definition at the top of kernel/audit.c. * We never checked the status of the auditd connection when processing the main audit queue which meant that the retry queue could grow unchecked. This patch adds a call to auditd_reset() after the main queue has been processed if auditd is not connected, the auditd_reset() call will make sure the retry and hold queues are correctly managed/flushed so that the retry queue remains reasonable.

* audit: fix auditd/kernel connection state trackingPaul Moore2017-03-211-245/+394
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | What started as a rather straightforward race condition reported by Dmitry using the syzkaller fuzzer ended up revealing some major problems with how the audit subsystem managed its netlink sockets and its connection with the userspace audit daemon. Fixing this properly had quite the cascading effect and what we are left with is this rather large and complicated patch. My initial goal was to try and decompose this patch into multiple smaller patches, but the way these changes are intertwined makes it difficult to split these changes into meaningful pieces that don't break or somehow make things worse for the intermediate states. The patch makes a number of changes, but the most significant are highlighted below: * The auditd tracking variables, e.g. audit_sock, are now gone and replaced by a RCU/spin_lock protected variable auditd_conn which is a structure containing all of the auditd tracking information. * We no longer track the auditd sock directly, instead we track it via the network namespace in which it resides and we use the audit socket associated with that namespace. In spirit, this is what the code was trying to do prior to this patch (at least I think that is what the original authors intended), but it was done rather poorly and added a layer of obfuscation that only masked the underlying problems. * Big backlog queue cleanup, again. In v4.10 we made some pretty big changes to how the audit backlog queues work, here we haven't changed the queue design so much as cleaned up the implementation. Brought about by the locking changes, we've simplified kauditd_thread() quite a bit by consolidating the queue handling into a new helper function, kauditd_send_queue(), which allows us to eliminate a lot of very similar code and makes the looping logic in kauditd_thread() clearer. * All netlink messages sent to auditd are now sent via auditd_send_unicast_skb(). Other than just making sense, this makes the lock handling easier. * Change the audit_log_start() sleep behavior so that we never sleep on auditd events (unchanged) or if the caller is holding the audit_cmd_mutex (changed). Previously we didn't sleep if the caller was auditd or if the message type fell between a certain range; the type check was a poor effort of doing what the cmd_mutex check now does. Richard Guy Briggs originally proposed not sleeping the cmd_mutex owner several years ago but his patch wasn't acceptable at the time. At least the idea lives on here. * A problem with the lost record counter has been resolved. Steve Grubb and I both happened to notice this problem and according to some quick testing by Steve, this problem goes back quite some time. It's largely a harmless problem, although it may have left some careful sysadmins quite puzzled.
