commit 2504db207146543736e877241f3b3de005cbe056 upstream.

When finding the profile via patterned attachments, the longest left
match is being set to the static compile time value and not using the
runtime computed value.

Fix this by setting the candidate value to the greater of the
precomputed value or runtime computed value.

<title>apparmor: fix absroot causing audited secids to begin with =</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 511f7b5b835726e844a5fc7444c18e4b8672edfd upstream.

AppArmor is prefixing secids that are converted to secctx with the =
to indicate the secctx should only be parsed from an absolute root
POV. This allows catching errors where secctx are reparsed back into
internal labels.

Unfortunately because audit is using secid to secctx conversion this
means that subject and object labels can result in a very unfortunate
== that can break audit parsing.

eg. the subj==unconfined term in the below audit message

type=USER_LOGIN msg=audit(1639443365.233:160): pid=1633 uid=0 auid=1000
ses=3 subj==unconfined msg='op=login id=1000 exe="/usr/sbin/sshd"
hostname=192.168.122.1 addr=192.168.122.1 terminal=/dev/pts/1 res=success'

Fix this by switch the prepending of = to a _. This still works as a
special character to flag this case without breaking audit. Also move
this check behind debug as it should not be needed during normal
operqation.

Uses of AA_BUG() without a message can result in the compiler warning

  warning: zero-length gnu_printf format string [-Wformat-zero-length]

Fix this with a pragma for now. A larger rework of AA_BUG() will
follow.

Change the macro definition to use no_printk(), which improves

<title>security: add const qualifier to struct sock in various places</title>

<content type='text'>
A followup change to tcp_request_sock_op would have to drop the 'const'
qualifier from the 'route_req' function as the
'security_inet_conn_request' call is moved there - and that function
expects a 'struct sock *'.

However, it turns out its also possible to add a const qualifier to
security_inet_conn_request instead.

<title>mm, treewide: rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive()</title>

As said by Linus:

  A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use.
  Otherwise it's actively misleading.

  In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the
  caller wants.

  In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the
  future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or
  something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_.

The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information
that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory
objects.

Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently
added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit.
In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure
that it won't get optimized away by the compiler.

The renaming is done by using the command sequence:

  git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\
  xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/'

followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding
a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.
