Merge tag 'selinux-pr-20200127' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux

Pull SELinux update from Paul Moore:
 "This is one of the bigger SELinux pull requests in recent years with
  28 patches. Everything is passing our test suite and the highlights
  are below:

   - Mark CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DISABLE as deprecated. We're some time
     away from actually attempting to remove this in the kernel, but the
     only distro we know that still uses it (Fedora) is working on
     moving away from this so we want to at least let people know we are
     planning to remove it.

   - Reorder the SELinux hooks to help prevent bad things when SELinux
     is disabled at runtime. The proper fix is to remove the
     CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DISABLE functionality (see above) and just
     take care of it at boot time (e.g. "selinux=0").

   - Add SELinux controls for the kernel lockdown functionality,
     introducing a new SELinux class/permissions: "lockdown { integrity
     confidentiality }".

   - Add a SELinux control for move_mount(2) that reuses the "file {
     mounton }" permission.

   - Improvements to the SELinux security label data store lookup
     functions to speed up translations between our internal label
     representations and the visible string labels (both directions).

   - Revisit a previous fix related to SELinux inode auditing and
     permission caching and do it correctly this time.

   - Fix the SELinux access decision cache to cleanup properly on error.
     In some extreme cases this could limit the cache size and result in
     a decrease in performance.

   - Enable SELinux per-file labeling for binderfs.

   - The SELinux initialized and disabled flags were wrapped with
     accessors to ensure they are accessed correctly.

   - Mark several key SELinux structures with __randomize_layout.

   - Changes to the LSM build configuration to only build
     security/lsm_audit.c when needed.

   - Changes to the SELinux build configuration to only build the IB
     object cache when CONFIG_SECURITY_INFINIBAND is enabled.

   - Move a number of single-caller functions into their callers.

   - Documentation fixes (/selinux -> /sys/fs/selinux).

   - A handful of cleanup patches that aren't worth mentioning on their
     own, the individual descriptions have plenty of detail"

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
