6c5b3fc014 selinux: Cache NetLabel secattrs in the socket's security struct
Previous work enabled the use of address based NetLabel selectors, which
while highly useful, brought the potential for additional per-packet overhead
when used.  This patch attempts to mitigate some of that overhead by caching
the NetLabel security attribute struct within the SELinux socket security
structure.  This should help eliminate the need to recreate the NetLabel
secattr structure for each packet resulting in less overhead.

014ab19a69 selinux: Set socket NetLabel based on connection endpoint
Previous work enabled the use of address based NetLabel selectors, which while
highly useful, brought the potential for additional per-packet overhead when
used.  This patch attempts to solve that by applying NetLabel socket labels
when sockets are connect()'d.  This should alleviate the per-packet NetLabel
labeling for all connected sockets (yes, it even works for connected DGRAM
sockets).

948bf85c1b netlabel: Add functionality to set the security attributes of a packet
This patch builds upon the new NetLabel address selector functionality by
providing the NetLabel KAPI and CIPSO engine support needed to enable the
new packet-based labeling.  The only new addition to the NetLabel KAPI at
this point is shown below:

 * int netlbl_skbuff_setattr(skb, family, secattr)

... and is designed to be called from a Netfilter hook after the packet's
IP header has been populated such as in the FORWARD or LOCAL_OUT hooks.

This patch also provides the necessary SELinux hooks to support this new
functionality.  Smack support is not currently included due to uncertainty
regarding the permissions needed to expand the Smack network access controls.

dfaebe9825 selinux: Fix missing calls to netlbl_skbuff_err()
At some point I think I messed up and dropped the calls to netlbl_skbuff_err()
which are necessary for CIPSO to send error notifications to remote systems.
This patch re-introduces the error handling calls into the SELinux code.

cc03766aaf SELinux: netlabel.h whitespace, syntax, and other cleanups
This patch changes netlabel.h to fix whitespace and syntax issues.  Things that
are fixed may include (does not not have to include)

spaces used instead of tabs

f74af6e816 SELinux: Correct the NetLabel locking for the sk_security_struct
The RCU/spinlock locking approach for the nlbl_state in the sk_security_struct
was almost certainly overkill.  This patch removes both the RCU and spinlock
locking, relying on the existing socket locks to handle the case of multiple
writers.  This change also makes several code reductions possible.

Less locking, less code - it's a Good Thing.

5dbe1eb0cf SELinux: Allow NetLabel to directly cache SIDs
Now that the SELinux NetLabel "base SID" is always the netmsg initial SID we
can do a big optimization - caching the SID and not just the MLS attributes.
This not only saves a lot of per-packet memory allocations and copies but it
has a nice side effect of removing a chunk of code.

220deb966e SELinux: Better integration between peer labeling subsystems
Rework the handling of network peer labels so that the different peer labeling
subsystems work better together.  This includes moving both subsystems to a
single "peer" object class which involves not only changes to the permission
checks but an improved method of consolidating multiple packet peer labels.
As part of this work the inbound packet permission check code has been heavily
modified to handle both the old and new behavior in as sane a fashion as
possible.

75e22910cf NetLabel: Add IP address family information to the netlbl_skbuff_getattr() function
In order to do any sort of IP header inspection of incoming packets we need to
know which address family, AF_INET/AF_INET6/etc., it belongs to and since the
sk_buff structure does not store this information we need to pass along the
address family separate from the packet itself.

c60475bf35 SELinux: rename selinux_netlabel.h to netlabel.h
In the beginning I named the file selinux_netlabel.h to avoid potential
namespace colisions.  However, over time I have realized that there are several
other similar cases of multiple header files with the same name so I'm changing
the name to something which better fits with existing naming conventions.
