Add the interfaces `capable_any()` and `ns_capable_any()` as an
alternative to multiple `capable()`/`ns_capable()` calls, like
`capable_any(CAP_SYS_NICE, CAP_SYS_ADMIN)` instead of
`capable(CAP_SYS_NICE) || capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN)`.

`capable_any()`/`ns_capable_any()` will in particular generate exactly
one audit message, either for the left most capability in effect or, if
the task has none, the first one.

This is especially helpful with regard to SELinux, where each audit
message about a not allowed capability will create an AVC denial.
Using this function with the least invasive capability as left most
argument (e.g. CAP_SYS_NICE before CAP_SYS_ADMIN) enables policy writers
to only allow the least invasive one and SELinux domains pass this check
with only capability:sys_nice or capability:sys_admin allowed without
any AVC denial message.

v3:
   - rename to capable_any()
   - fix typo in function documentation
   - add ns_capable_any()
v2:
   avoid varargs and fix to two capabilities; capable_or3() can be added
   later if needed

Kindly ping.

So far patch 3 was reviewed [1] and patch 4 was reviewed [2,3] and
partially acked [4].

Currently this series trivially rebases on top of 6.0-rc1.
Should I send a rebased v4 or what is the best way to move forward?

Hi Christian,

Sorry for the delay, this is one of those things that was stalled a
bit during the maintainer hand-off.  It's on my list of things to look
at, it is just unfortunate that we have had a lot of things going on
at the LSM layer lately; don't respin it just yet, let me take a quick
look first ...

I'm slightly concerned that some people are going to be upset about
making an additional call into the capabilities code with this
function.  I think we need to be a bit more clever here to take out
some of the extra work.

I wonder if we create a new capability function, call it
ns_capable_audittrue(...) or something like that, that only generates
an audit record if the current task has the requested capability; if
the current task does not have the requested capability no audit
record is generated.  With this new function I think we could rewrite
ns_capable_any(...) like this:

  bool ns_capable_any(ns, cap1, cap2)
  {
    if (ns_capable_audittrue(ns, cap1))
      return true;
    if (ns_capable_audittrue(ns, cap2))
      return true;
    return ns_capable(ns, cap1);
  }

... we would still have an extra capability check in the failure case,
but that's an error case anyway and not likely to draw much concern.

Of course this would require some additional work, meaning a new
CAP_OPT_XXX flag (CAP_OPT_AUDITTRUE?), and updates to the individual
LSMs.  However, the good news here is that it appears only SELinux and
AppArmor would need modification (the others don't care about
capabilities or audit) and in each case the modification to support
the new CAP_OPT_AUDITTRUE flag look pretty simple.

Thoughts?

To be clear, when I mean by generating an audit record when true is
that the LSMs implementing the security_capable() hook would only call
their audit related code when the capability requirement was met, in
many cases that will *not* likely generate an audit record, but you
get the basic idea I hope.  For SELinux this would likely mean
modifying cred_has_capability() something like this ...
