The call aa_getpeercon() can return ENOPROTOOPT error in some cases, specifically when the kernel lacks 'fine grained unix mediation'. Currently, this capability isn't available in upstream kernels, but only in patched ones (for example, the regular Ubuntu kernels). Unfortunately, the manpage lacks this info. This patch fixes this.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The aa_getcon function gets the current AppArmor confinement context for the
|
|
current task. The confinement context consists of a label and a mode. The label
|
|
is usually just the name of the AppArmor profile restricting the task, but it
|
|
may include the profile namespace or in some cases a set of profile names
|
|
(known as a stack of profiles). The mode is a string that describes how the
|
|
kernel is enforcing the policy defined in the profile. Profiles loaded in
|
|
"enforce" mode will result in enforcement of the policy defined in the profile
|
|
as well as reporting policy violation attempts. Profiles in "complain" mode
|
|
will not enforce policy but instead report policy violation attempts.
|
|
|
|
Some examples of possible returned *label strings are "unconfined", "/sbin/dhclient",
|
|
and "Firefox". The string can consist of any non-NUL characters but it will be
|
|
NUL-terminated. The *label string must be freed using free().
|
|
|
|
The possible *mode strings are "enforce" and "complain". Additionally, *mode may
|
|
be NULL when *label is "unconfined". B<The *mode string must not be freed>. The
|
|
*label and *mode strings come from a single buffer allocation and are separated
|
|
by a NUL character.
|
|
|
|
The aa_gettaskcon function is like the aa_getcon function except it will work
|
|
for any arbitrary task in the system.
|
|
|
|
The aa_getpeercon function is similar to that of aa_gettaskcon except that
|
|
it returns the confinement information for task on the other end of a socket
|
|
connection.
|
|
|
|
The aa_getpeercon_raw function is the backend for the aa_getpeercon function
|
|
and does not handle buffer allocation.
|
|
|
|
The aa_getprocattr function is the backend for the aa_getcon and aa_gettaskcon
|
|
functions and handles the reading and parsing of the confinement data from
|
|
different arbitrary attr files and returns the processed results in
|
|
an allocated buffer.
|
|
|
|
The aa_getprocattr_raw() is the backend for the aa_getprocattr function and
|
|
does not handle buffer allocation.
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
On success size of data placed in the buffer is returned, this includes the
|
|
mode if present and any terminating characters. On error, -1 is returned, and
|
|
errno(3) is set appropriately.
|
|
|
|
=head1 ERRORS
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item B<EINVAL>
|
|
|
|
The apparmor kernel module is not loaded or the communication via the
|
|
F</proc/*/attr/file> did not conform to protocol.
|
|
|
|
=item B<ENOMEM>
|
|
|
|
Insufficient kernel memory was available.
|
|
|
|
=item B<EACCES>
|
|
|
|
Access to the specified I<file/task> was denied.
|
|
|
|
=item B<ENOENT>
|
|
|
|
The specified I<file/task> does not exist or is not visible.
|
|
|
|
=item B<ERANGE>
|
|
|
|
The confinement data is too large to fit in the supplied buffer.
|
|
|
|
=item B<ENOPROTOOPT>
|
|
|
|
The kernel doesn't support the SO_PEERLABEL option in sockets. This happens
|
|
mainly when the kernel lacks 'fine grained unix mediation' support. It also
|
|
can happen on LSM stacking kernels where another LSM has claimed this
|
|
interface and decides to return this error, although this is really a
|
|
corner case.
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
If aa_getpeercon_raw returns -1 and errno is ERANGE, the value of *len can be
|
|
used to reallocate buf so that it is sufficiently large enough to store the
|
|
confinement data.
