Minimal supplement to upstream Kernel Self Protection Project changes. Features already provided by SELinux + Yama and archs other than multiarch arm64 / x86_64 aren't in scope. Only tags have stable history. Shared IRC channel with KSPP: irc.libera.chat #linux-hardening

Calling kmalloc(GFP_NOIO) with order == PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER is not recommended because it might fall into infinite retry loop without invoking the OOM killer. Since aa_dfa_unpack() is the only caller of kvzalloc() and aa_dfa_unpack() which is calling kvzalloc() via unpack_table() is doing kzalloc(GFP_KERNEL), it is safe to use GFP_KERNEL from __aa_kvmalloc(). Since aa_simple_write_to_buffer() is the only caller of kvmalloc() and aa_simple_write_to_buffer() is calling copy_from_user() which is GFP_KERNEL context (see memdup_user_nul()), it is safe to use GFP_KERNEL from __aa_kvmalloc(). Therefore, replace GFP_NOIO with GFP_KERNEL. Also, since we have vmalloc() fallback, add __GFP_NORETRY so that we don't invoke the OOM killer by kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) with order == PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
