Instead a getting only one common device "/dev/ion" for
all the heaps this patch allow to create one device
entry ("/dev/ionX") per heap.
Getting an entry per heap could allow to set security rules
per heap and global ones for all heaps.

Allocation requests will be only allowed if the mask_id
match with device minor.
Query request could be done on any of the devices.

version 5:
- create a configuration flag to keep legacy Ion misc device

version 4:
- add a configuration flag to switch between legacy Ion misc device
  and one device per heap version.

version 3:
- change ion_device_add_heap prototype to return a possible error.

version 2:
- simplify ioctl check like propose by Dan
- make sure that we don't register more than ION_DEV_MAX heaps.

Thinking about this a bit more, I'm not 100% sure if this
will allow the security rules we want. Heap ids are assigned
dynamically and therefore so will the /dev/ionX designation.
From my understanding, security rules like selinux need to
be fully specified at boot time so I'm not sure how you would
be able to write rules to differentiate between /dev/ionX and
/dev/ionY without knowing the values at boottime.

So I think we need a different way to match the heap ids to
get the security we want unless my understanding of security
policies is wrong and we can dynamically specify permissions.

Thanks,
Laura

Isn't this something that should be managable via udev rules that ensure
stable names in the same way as for things like disks or ethernet
controllers (even if it just ends up doing something like /dev/ion-gpu
or whatever)?  If we're not giving it enough information to assign stable
names where needed we probably need to fix that anyway.

Android doesn't use a standard udev so we'd need something that
would work there. My understanding was that android needs everything
specified at boot unless that's changed.

There would be enough information to assign stable names
(e.g. /dev/ion-system) if we used the query ioctl to find out
what's actually available. Is just the ioctl useful though?

Thanks,
Laura

Wouldn't this new ioctl() to query the heap name also result in special case
handling of all ion devices in user space?

If the devices are named with their corresponding heap names like ion-system, ion-cma etc.
It is entirely possible and easy in android/ueventd to create those nodes
under "/dev/ion/".  (assuming the heap 'subsystem' for these new devices will
point to 'ion').

Something like the following should work if added in ueventd.rc

  subsystem ion
    devname uevent_devname
    dirname /dev/ion

Also, makes SElinux labelling easier.

(Also FWIW, the SELinux permissions are also possible with the current ion
implementation by adding rules to disallow specific ioctls instead of adding
permissions to access device node as this change would do)

I'm not quite sure what you are referring to. If you mean we have
to match on the heap name then yes that's going to happen but we
can't just zero knowledge which heap to allocate from and matching
on heap names seemed like the easiest way to make that happen.

Can selinux disallow access within the ioctls though? The access control
wanted is at a heap granularity and disallowing certain ioctls won't fix
that.

The reason I didn't say /dev/ion/foo initially is that if people want to
keep the existing /dev/ion around for compatibility reasons then the
/dev/ion name isn't available which might cause issues.  Otherwise just
dumping everything under a directory (perhaps with a different name) was
my first thought as well.

AIUI the request is to limit access to specific heaps, and obviously not
everyone wants to deal with SELinux at all.

I think it is the same problem than for webcam under v4l framework.
Each time you plug a webcam you got a v4l node but android/uevent rules
the plug order doesn't have impact.
The same think will happen for ion nodes it may be even easier because
the heap will always being created in the smae order for a given product
configuration.

Relying on the heap being created in the same order seems troublesome.
If for some reason it changes in the kernel we might break something
in userspace.

Anyway, to move this forward I think we need to see a proof of concept
of using selinux to protect access to specific heaps.

Aren't Unix permissions enough with separate files or am I
misunderstanding what you're looking to see a proof of concept for?

The goal is to be able to restrict heap access to certain services
and selinux groups on Android so straight unix permissions aren't
sufficient.

Oh, there's Android users for this?  The users I was aware of were
non-Android.  Though even so I'd have thought that given that SELinux is
a superset of Unix file permissions it ought to be sufficient to be able
to use them.  I'd been thinking people were suggesting SELinux as a
replacement for file permissions, using the single file and the greater
capabilities of SELinux.

Unix file permissions are necessary but not sufficient, they
can be used separately. Mostly what I want to see before
merging this is an example that splitting the Ion heaps provides
more protection than just keeping /dev/ion.

To give you an example on my system I have cma regions and so
2 heaps. One is for video decoding/encoding usage and one is dedicated
to display. The goal is to be sure to have enough memory for each devices

With only one /dev/ion nothing (except heap id mask) prohibed one video
apllication to use the cma region dedicated to display.
With one device per heaps I could change the permissions to be sure that
only display have access to the correct heap.
In android init.rc file I will have to change
  chmod 0666 /dev/ion
  chown system graphics /dev/ion

to something like
  chmod 0666 /dev/ion1
  chown system graphics /dev/ion1
  chmod 0666 /dev/ion2
  chown system media /dev/ion2

Android SEpolicy is defined like that
   allow { appdomain -isolated_app } ion_device:chr_file rw_file_perms;
which means that apps could have access to /dev/ion
with multiple devices we can imagine to protect some heap of being used by
the apps, for example like this
   allow { appdomain -isolated_app } ion_device0:chr_file {open ioctl};
   allow { system } ion_device1:chr_file {open ioctl};
  allow { media } ion_device2:chr_file {open ioctl};

I'm not 100% sure about the device hierarchy here. We're
ending up with devices at the root of /sys/devices

/sys/devices # ls
breakpoint ion0 ion1 ion2 platform software system virtual 

and the Android init system doesn't pick this up. I'll
admit to being out of my area here but I don't think
this looks quite right.

You are right it is because ion devices are parentless so they
directly put under /sys/devices directory. I will give them platform_bus
as parent to solve that problem.
