9 config SECURITY_DMESG_RESTRICT
10 bool "Restrict unprivileged access to the kernel syslog"
11 default n
12 help
13 This enforces restrictions on unprivileged users reading the kernel
14 syslog via dmesg(8).
15
16 If this option is not selected, no restrictions will be enforced
17 unless the dmesg_restrict sysctl is explicitly set to (1).

21 config SECURITY
22 bool "Enable different security models"
23 depends on SYSFS
24 depends on MULTIUSER
25 help
26 This allows you to choose different security modules to be
27 configured into your kernel.
28
29 If this option is not selected, the default Linux security
30 model will be used.

34 config PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION
35 bool "Remove the kernel mapping in user mode"

37 depends on X86_64 && SMP
38 help
39 This enforces a strict kernel and user space isolation, in order
40 to close hardware side channels on kernel address information.

42 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer Y.

44 config SECURITYFS
45 bool "Enable the securityfs filesystem"
46 help
47 This will build the securityfs filesystem. It is currently used by
48 the TPM bios character driver and IMA, an integrity provider. It is
49 not used by SELinux or SMACK.

53 config SECURITY_NETWORK
54 bool "Socket and Networking Security Hooks"
55 depends on SECURITY
56 help
57 This enables the socket and networking security hooks.
58 If enabled, a security module can use these hooks to
59 implement socket and networking access controls.
60 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
61
62 config SECURITY_NETWORK_XFRM
63 bool "XFRM (IPSec) Networking Security Hooks"
64 depends on XFRM && SECURITY_NETWORK
65 help
66 This enables the XFRM (IPSec) networking security hooks.
67 If enabled, a security module can use these hooks to
68 implement per-packet access controls based on labels
69 derived from IPSec policy. Non-IPSec communications are
70 designated as unlabelled, and only sockets authorized
71 to communicate unlabelled data can send without using
72 IPSec.
73 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
74
75 config SECURITY_PATH
76 bool "Security hooks for pathname based access control"
77 depends on SECURITY
78 help
79 This enables the security hooks for pathname based access control.
80 If enabled, a security module can use these hooks to
81 implement pathname based access controls.
82 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
83
84 config INTEL_TXT
85 bool "Enable Intel(R) Trusted Execution Technology (Intel(R) TXT)"
86 depends on HAVE_INTEL_TXT
87 help
88 This option enables support for booting the kernel with the
89 Trusted Boot (tboot) module. This will utilize
90 Intel(R) Trusted Execution Technology to perform a measured launch
91 of the kernel. If the system does not support Intel(R) TXT, this
92 will have no effect.
93
94 Intel TXT will provide higher assurance of system configuration and
95 initial state as well as data reset protection. This is used to
96 create a robust initial kernel measurement and verification, which
97 helps to ensure that kernel security mechanisms are functioning
98 correctly. This level of protection requires a root of trust outside
99 of the kernel itself.
100
101 Intel TXT also helps solve real end user concerns about having
102 confidence that their hardware is running the VMM or kernel that
103 it was configured with, especially since they may be responsible for
104 providing such assurances to VMs and services running on it.
105
106 See <http://www.intel.com/technology/security/> for more information
107 about Intel(R) TXT.
108 See <http://tboot.sourceforge.net> for more information about tboot.
109 See Documentation/intel_txt.txt for a description of how to enable
110 Intel TXT support in a kernel boot.
111
112 If you are unsure as to whether this is required, answer N.

114 config LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR
115 int "Low address space for LSM to protect from user allocation"
116 depends on SECURITY && SECURITY_SELINUX
117 default 32768 if ARM || (ARM64 && COMPAT)
118 default 65536
119 help
120 This is the portion of low virtual memory which should be protected
121 from userspace allocation. Keeping a user from writing to low pages
122 can help reduce the impact of kernel NULL pointer bugs.
123
124 For most ia64, ppc64 and x86 users with lots of address space
125 a value of 65536 is reasonable and should cause no problems.
126 On arm and other archs it should not be higher than 32768.
127 Programs which use vm86 functionality or have some need to map
128 this low address space will need the permission specific to the
129 systems running LSM.
