Merge tag 'for-5.15/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm
Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - Add DM infrastructure for IMA-based remote attestion. These changes are the basis for deploying DM-based storage in a "cloud" that must validate configurations end-users run to maintain trust. These DM changes allow supported DM targets' configurations to be measured via IMA. But the policy and enforcement (of which configurations are valid) is managed by something outside the kernel (e.g. Keylime). - Fix DM crypt scalability regression on systems with many cpus due to percpu_counter spinlock contention in crypt_page_alloc(). - Use in_hardirq() instead of deprecated in_irq() in DM crypt. - Add event counters to DM writecache to allow users to further assess how the writecache is performing. - Various code cleanup in DM writecache's main IO mapping function. * tag 'for-5.15/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: dm crypt: use in_hardirq() instead of deprecated in_irq() dm ima: update dm documentation for ima measurement support dm ima: update dm target attributes for ima measurements dm ima: add a warning in dm_init if duplicate ima events are not measured dm ima: prefix ima event name related to device mapper with dm_ dm ima: add version info to dm related events in ima log dm ima: prefix dm table hashes in ima log with hash algorithm dm crypt: Avoid percpu_counter spinlock contention in crypt_page_alloc() dm: add documentation for IMA measurement support dm: update target status functions to support IMA measurement dm ima: measure data on device rename dm ima: measure data on table clear dm ima: measure data on device remove dm ima: measure data on device resume dm ima: measure data on table load dm writecache: add event counters dm writecache: report invalid return from writecache_map helpers dm writecache: further writecache_map() cleanup dm writecache: factor out writecache_map_remap_origin() dm writecache: split up writecache_map() to improve code readability

+
+For a given system, various external services/infrastructure tools
+(including the attestation service) interact with it - both during the
+setup and during rest of the system run-time. They share sensitive data
+and/or execute critical workload on that system. The external services
+may want to verify the current run-time state of the relevant kernel
+subsystems before fully trusting the system with business-critical
+data/workload.
+
+Device mapper plays a critical role on a given system by providing
+various important functionalities to the block devices using various
+target types like crypt, verity, integrity etc. Each of these target
+types’ functionalities can be configured with various attributes.
+The attributes chosen to configure these target types can significantly
+impact the security profile of the block device, and in-turn, of the
+system itself. For instance, the type of encryption algorithm and the
+key size determines the strength of encryption for a given block device.
+
+Therefore, verifying the current state of various block devices as well
+as their various target attributes is crucial for external services before
+fully trusting the system with business-critical data/workload.
+
+IMA kernel subsystem provides the necessary functionality for
+device mapper to measure the state and configuration of
+various block devices -
+
+- by device mapper itself, from within the kernel,
+- in a tamper resistant way,
+- and re-measured - triggered on state/configuration change.
+
+Setting the IMA Policy:
+=======================
+For IMA to measure the data on a given system, the IMA policy on the
+system needs to be updated to have following line, and the system needs
+to be restarted for the measurements to take effect.
+
+::
+
+ /etc/ima/ima-policy
+ measure func=CRITICAL_DATA label=device-mapper template=ima-buf
+
+The measurements will be reflected in the IMA logs, which are located at:
+
+::
+
+ /sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements
+ /sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/binary_runtime_measurements
+
+Then IMA ASCII measurement log has the following format:
+
+::
+
+ <PCR> <TEMPLATE_DATA_DIGEST> <TEMPLATE_NAME> <TEMPLATE_DATA>
+
+ PCR := Platform Configuration Register, in which the values are registered.
+ This is applicable if TPM chip is in use.
+
+ TEMPLATE_DATA_DIGEST := Template data digest of the IMA record.
+ TEMPLATE_NAME := Template name that registered the integrity value (e.g. ima-buf).
+
+ TEMPLATE_DATA := <ALG> ":" <EVENT_DIGEST> <EVENT_NAME> <EVENT_DATA>
+ It contains data for the specific event to be measured,
+ in a given template data format.
+
+ ALG := Algorithm to compute event digest
+ EVENT_DIGEST := Digest of the event data
+ EVENT_NAME := Description of the event (e.g. 'dm_table_load').
+ EVENT_DATA := The event data to be measured.
+
+|
+
+| *NOTE #1:*
+| The DM target data measured by IMA subsystem can alternatively
+ be queried from userspace by setting DM_IMA_MEASUREMENT_FLAG with
+ DM_TABLE_STATUS_CMD.
+
+|
+
+| *NOTE #2:*
+| The Kernel configuration CONFIG_IMA_DISABLE_HTABLE allows measurement of duplicate records.
+| To support recording duplicate IMA events in the IMA log, the Kernel needs to be configured with
+ CONFIG_IMA_DISABLE_HTABLE=y.
+
+Supported Device States:
+========================
+Following device state changes will trigger IMA measurements:
+
+ 1. Table load
+ #. Device resume
+ #. Device remove
+ #. Table clear
+ #. Device rename
+
+1. Table load:
+---------------
+When a new table is loaded in a device's inactive table slot,
+the device information and target specific details from the
+targets in the table are measured.
+
+The IMA measurement log has the following format for 'dm_table_load':
+
+::
+
+ EVENT_NAME := "dm_table_load"
+ EVENT_DATA := <dm_version_str> ";" <device_metadata> ";" <table_load_data>
+
+ dm_version_str := "dm_version=" <N> "." <N> "." <N>
+ Same as Device Mapper driver version.
+ device_metadata := <device_name> "," <device_uuid> "," <device_major> "," <device_minor> ","
+ <minor_count> "," <num_device_targets> ";"
+
+ device_name := "name=" <dm-device-name>
+ device_uuid := "uuid=" <dm-device-uuid>
+ device_major := "major=" <N>
+ device_minor := "minor=" <N>
+ minor_count := "minor_count=" <N>
+ num_device_targets := "num_targets=" <N>
+ dm-device-name := Name of the device. If it contains special characters like '\', ',', ';',
+ they are prefixed with '\'.
+ dm-device-uuid := UUID of the device. If it contains special characters like '\', ',', ';',
+ they are prefixed with '\'.
+
+ table_load_data := <target_data>
+ Represents the data (as name=value pairs) from various targets in the table,
+ which is being loaded into the DM device's inactive table slot.
+ target_data := <target_data_row> | <target_data><target_data_row>
+
+ target_data_row := <target_index> "," <target_begin> "," <target_len> "," <target_name> ","
+ <target_version> "," <target_attributes> ";"
+ target_index := "target_index=" <N>
+ Represents nth target in the table (from 0 to N-1 targets specified in <num_device_targets>)
+ If all the data for N targets doesn't fit in the given buffer - then the data that fits
+ in the buffer (say from target 0 to x) is measured in a given IMA event.
+ The remaining data from targets x+1 to N-1 is measured in the subsequent IMA events,
+ with the same format as that of 'dm_table_load'
+ i.e. <dm_version_str> ";" <device_metadata> ";" <table_load_data>.
+
+ target_begin := "target_begin=" <N>
+ target_len := "target_len=" <N>
+ target_name := Name of the target. 'linear', 'crypt', 'integrity' etc.
+ The targets that are supported for IMA measurements are documented below in the
+ 'Supported targets' section.
+ target_version := "target_version=" <N> "." <N> "." <N>
+ target_attributes := Data containing comma separated list of name=value pairs of target specific attributes.
+
+ For instance, if a linear device is created with the following table entries,
+ # dmsetup create linear1
+ 0 2 linear /dev/loop0 512
+ 2 2 linear /dev/loop0 512
+ 4 2 linear /dev/loop0 512
+ 6 2 linear /dev/loop0 512
+

+ table_hash_alg := Algorithm used to compute the hash.
+ table_hash := Hash of the (<dm_version_str> ";" <device_metadata> ";" <table_load_data> ";")
+ as described in the 'dm_table_load' above.
+ Note: If the table_load data spans across multiple IMA 'dm_table_load'
+ events for a given device, the hash is computed combining all the event data
+ i.e. (<dm_version_str> ";" <device_metadata> ";" <table_load_data> ";")
+ across all those events.
+ current_device_capacity := "current_device_capacity=" <N>
+
+ For instance, if a linear device is resumed with the following command,
