evm: Move to LSM infrastructure

As for IMA, move hardcoded EVM function calls from various places in the
kernel to the LSM infrastructure, by introducing a new LSM named 'evm'
(last and always enabled like 'ima'). The order in the Makefile ensures
that 'evm' hooks are executed after 'ima' ones.

Make EVM functions as static (except for evm_inode_init_security(), which
is exported), and register them as hook implementations in init_evm_lsm().
Also move the inline functions evm_inode_remove_acl(),
evm_inode_post_remove_acl(), and evm_inode_post_set_acl() from the public
evm.h header to evm_main.c.

Unlike before (see commit to move IMA to the LSM infrastructure),
evm_inode_post_setattr(), evm_inode_post_set_acl(),
evm_inode_post_remove_acl(), and evm_inode_post_removexattr() are not
executed for private inodes.

Finally, add the LSM_ID_EVM case in lsm_list_modules_test.c

At inode_remove_acl hook, EVM verifies the file's existing HMAC value. At

Other LSMs could similarly take some action after successful POSIX ACL
removal.

The new hook cannot return an error and cannot cause the operation to be

acl: don't depend on IOP_XATTR

All codepaths that don't want to implement POSIX ACLs should simply not
implement the associated inode operations instead of relying on
IOP_XATTR. That's the case for all filesystems today.

For vfs_listxattr() all filesystems that explicitly turn of xattrs for a
given inode all set inode->i_op to a dedicated set of inode operations
that doesn't implement ->listxattr(). We can remove the dependency of
vfs_listxattr() on IOP_XATTR.

Removing this dependency will allow us to decouple POSIX ACLs from
IOP_XATTR and they can still be listed even if no other xattr handlers
are implemented. Otherwise we would have to implement elaborate schemes
to raise IOP_XATTR even if sb->s_xattr is set to NULL.

Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached to a

conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with namespaces

without detailed knowledge in this area this can be a potential source for

Once the conversion to struct mnt_idmap is done all helpers down to the

In previous patches we built a new posix api solely around get and set

type conversion issues explained in detail in [1] that we aim to get rid
of.

With the new posix acl api we immediately translate into an appropriate
kernel internal struct posix_acl format both when getting and setting
posix acls. This is a stark contrast to before were we hacked unsafe raw
values into the uapi struct that was stored in a void pointer relying
and having filesystems and security modules hack around in the uapi
struct as well.

In previous patches we implemented get and set inode operations for all

Now we can build a posix acl api based solely on get and set inode
operations. We add a new vfs_remove_acl() api that can be used to set
posix acls. This finally removes all type unsafety and type conversion
issues explained in detail in [1] that we aim to get rid of.

After we finished building the vfs api we can switch stacking
filesystems to rely on the new posix api and then finally switch the
xattr system calls themselves to rely on the posix acl api.
