[PATCH v14 bpf-next 1/6] bpf: Add kfunc bpf_get_file_xattr

From: Song Liu <song@kernel.org>
Date: 2023-11-29 00:37:10
Also in: bpf, linux-fsdevel
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), bpf [security & lsm] (security audit and enforcement using bpf), bpf [tracing], the rest, tracing · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, KP Singh, Matt Bobrowski, Song Liu, Linus Torvalds, Steven Rostedt, Masami Hiramatsu

It is common practice for security solutions to store tags/labels in
xattrs. To implement similar functionalities in BPF LSM, add new kfunc
bpf_get_file_xattr().

The first use case of bpf_get_file_xattr() is to implement file
verifications with asymmetric keys. Specificially, security applications
could use fsverity for file hashes and use xattr to store file signatures.
(kfunc for fsverity hash will be added in a separate commit.)

Currently, only xattrs with "user." prefix can be read with kfunc
bpf_get_file_xattr(). As use cases evolve, we may add a dedicated prefix
for bpf_get_file_xattr().

To avoid recursion, bpf_get_file_xattr can be only called from LSM hooks.
