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 help
25 This allows you to choose different security modules to be
26 configured into your kernel.
27
28 If this option is not selected, the default Linux security
29 model will be used.

31 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.

33 config SECURITYFS
34 bool "Enable the securityfs filesystem"
35 help
36 This will build the securityfs filesystem. It is currently used by
37 the TPM bios character driver and IMA, an integrity provider. It is
38 not used by SELinux or SMACK.

42 config SECURITY_NETWORK
43 bool "Socket and Networking Security Hooks"
44 depends on SECURITY
45 help
46 This enables the socket and networking security hooks.
47 If enabled, a security module can use these hooks to
48 implement socket and networking access controls.
49 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
50
51 config SECURITY_NETWORK_XFRM
52 bool "XFRM (IPSec) Networking Security Hooks"
53 depends on XFRM && SECURITY_NETWORK
54 help
55 This enables the XFRM (IPSec) networking security hooks.
56 If enabled, a security module can use these hooks to
57 implement per-packet access controls based on labels
58 derived from IPSec policy. Non-IPSec communications are
59 designated as unlabelled, and only sockets authorized
60 to communicate unlabelled data can send without using
61 IPSec.
62 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
63
64 config SECURITY_PATH
65 bool "Security hooks for pathname based access control"
66 depends on SECURITY
67 help
68 This enables the security hooks for pathname based access control.
69 If enabled, a security module can use these hooks to
70 implement pathname based access controls.
71 If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.

73 config INTEL_TXT
74 bool "Enable Intel(R) Trusted Execution Technology (Intel(R) TXT)"
75 depends on HAVE_INTEL_TXT
76 help
77 This option enables support for booting the kernel with the
78 Trusted Boot (tboot) module. This will utilize
79 Intel(R) Trusted Execution Technology to perform a measured launch
80 of the kernel. If the system does not support Intel(R) TXT, this
81 will have no effect.
82
83 Intel TXT will provide higher assurance of system configuration and
84 initial state as well as data reset protection. This is used to
85 create a robust initial kernel measurement and verification, which
86 helps to ensure that kernel security mechanisms are functioning
87 correctly. This level of protection requires a root of trust outside
88 of the kernel itself.
89
90 Intel TXT also helps solve real end user concerns about having
91 confidence that their hardware is running the VMM or kernel that
92 it was configured with, especially since they may be responsible for
93 providing such assurances to VMs and services running on it.
94
95 See <http://www.intel.com/technology/security/> for more information
96 about Intel(R) TXT.
97 See <http://tboot.sourceforge.net> for more information about tboot.
98 See Documentation/intel_txt.txt for a description of how to enable
99 Intel TXT support in a kernel boot.
100
101 If you are unsure as to whether this is required, answer N.

103 config LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR
104 int "Low address space for LSM to protect from user allocation"
105 depends on SECURITY && SECURITY_SELINUX
106 default 32768 if ARM
107 default 65536
108 help
109 This is the portion of low virtual memory which should be protected
110 from userspace allocation. Keeping a user from writing to low pages
111 can help reduce the impact of kernel NULL pointer bugs.
112
113 For most ia64, ppc64 and x86 users with lots of address space
114 a value of 65536 is reasonable and should cause no problems.
115 On arm and other archs it should not be higher than 32768.
116 Programs which use vm86 functionality or have some need to map
117 this low address space will need the permission specific to the
118 systems running LSM.
