1config SECURITY_SELINUX
2	bool "NSA SELinux Support"
3	depends on SECURITY_NETWORK && AUDIT && NET && INET
4	select NETWORK_SECMARK
5	default n
6	help
7	  This selects NSA Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux).
8	  You will also need a policy configuration and a labeled filesystem.
9	  You can obtain the policy compiler (checkpolicy), the utility for
10	  labeling filesystems (setfiles), and an example policy configuration
11	  from <http://www.nsa.gov/selinux/>.
12	  If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
13
14config SECURITY_SELINUX_BOOTPARAM
15	bool "NSA SELinux boot parameter"
16	depends on SECURITY_SELINUX
17	default n
18	help
19	  This option adds a kernel parameter 'selinux', which allows SELinux
20	  to be disabled at boot.  If this option is selected, SELinux
21	  functionality can be disabled with selinux=0 on the kernel
22	  command line.  The purpose of this option is to allow a single
23	  kernel image to be distributed with SELinux built in, but not
24	  necessarily enabled.
25
26	  If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
27
28config SECURITY_SELINUX_BOOTPARAM_VALUE
29	int "NSA SELinux boot parameter default value"
30	depends on SECURITY_SELINUX_BOOTPARAM
31	range 0 1
32	default 1
33	help
34	  This option sets the default value for the kernel parameter
35	  'selinux', which allows SELinux to be disabled at boot.  If this
36	  option is set to 0 (zero), the SELinux kernel parameter will
37	  default to 0, disabling SELinux at bootup.  If this option is
38	  set to 1 (one), the SELinux kernel parameter will default to 1,
39	  enabling SELinux at bootup.
40
41	  If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer 1.
42
43config SECURITY_SELINUX_DISABLE
44	bool "NSA SELinux runtime disable"
45	depends on SECURITY_SELINUX
46	default n
47	help
48	  This option enables writing to a selinuxfs node 'disable', which
49	  allows SELinux to be disabled at runtime prior to the policy load.
50	  SELinux will then remain disabled until the next boot.
51	  This option is similar to the selinux=0 boot parameter, but is to
52	  support runtime disabling of SELinux, e.g. from /sbin/init, for
53	  portability across platforms where boot parameters are difficult
54	  to employ.
55
56	  If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
57
58config SECURITY_SELINUX_DEVELOP
59	bool "NSA SELinux Development Support"
60	depends on SECURITY_SELINUX
61	default y
62	help
63	  This enables the development support option of NSA SELinux,
64	  which is useful for experimenting with SELinux and developing
65	  policies.  If unsure, say Y.  With this option enabled, the
66	  kernel will start in permissive mode (log everything, deny nothing)
67	  unless you specify enforcing=1 on the kernel command line.  You
68	  can interactively toggle the kernel between enforcing mode and
69	  permissive mode (if permitted by the policy) via /selinux/enforce.
70
71config SECURITY_SELINUX_AVC_STATS
72	bool "NSA SELinux AVC Statistics"
73	depends on SECURITY_SELINUX
74	default y
75	help
76	  This option collects access vector cache statistics to
77	  /selinux/avc/cache_stats, which may be monitored via
78	  tools such as avcstat.
79
80config SECURITY_SELINUX_CHECKREQPROT_VALUE
81	int "NSA SELinux checkreqprot default value"
82	depends on SECURITY_SELINUX
83	range 0 1
84	default 1
85	help
86	  This option sets the default value for the 'checkreqprot' flag
87	  that determines whether SELinux checks the protection requested
88	  by the application or the protection that will be applied by the
89	  kernel (including any implied execute for read-implies-exec) for
90	  mmap and mprotect calls.  If this option is set to 0 (zero),
91	  SELinux will default to checking the protection that will be applied
92	  by the kernel.  If this option is set to 1 (one), SELinux will
93	  default to checking the protection requested by the application.
94	  The checkreqprot flag may be changed from the default via the
95	  'checkreqprot=' boot parameter.  It may also be changed at runtime
96	  via /selinux/checkreqprot if authorized by policy.
97
98	  If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer 1.
99
100config SECURITY_SELINUX_ENABLE_SECMARK_DEFAULT
101	bool "NSA SELinux enable new secmark network controls by default"
102	depends on SECURITY_SELINUX
103	default n
104	help
105	  This option determines whether the new secmark-based network
106	  controls will be enabled by default.  If not, the old internal
107	  per-packet controls will be enabled by default, preserving
108	  old behavior.
109
110	  If you enable the new controls, you will need updated
111	  SELinux userspace libraries, tools and policy.  Typically,
112	  your distribution will provide these and enable the new controls
113	  in the kernel they also distribute.
114
115	  Note that this option can be overriden at boot with the
116	  selinux_compat_net parameter, and after boot via
117	  /selinux/compat_net.  See Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt
118	  for details on this parameter.
119
120	  If you enable the new network controls, you will likely
121	  also require the SECMARK and CONNSECMARK targets, as
122	  well as any conntrack helpers for protocols which you
123	  wish to control.
124
125	  If you are unsure what do do here, select N.
