c656ae95d1 security/tomoyo: Remove now unnecessary handling of security_sysctl.
Now that sys_sysctl is an emulation on top of proc sys all sysctl
operations look like normal filesystem operations and we don't need
to use the special sysctl hook to authenticate them.

Regarding DAC, there are "read", "write", "execute" permissions.
Regarding TOMOYO, there are "allow_read", "allow_write", "allow_read/write",
"allow_execute", "allow_create", "allow_unlink", "allow_mkdir", "allow_rmdir",
"allow_mkfifo", "allow_mksock", "allow_mkblock", "allow_mkchar",
"allow_truncate", "allow_symlink", "allow_rewrite", "allow_link",
"allow_rename" permissions.

TOMOYO requires "allow_execute" permission of a pathname passed to do_execve()
but does not require "allow_read" permission of that pathname.
Let's consider 3 patterns (statically linked, dynamically linked,
shell script). This description is to some degree simplified.

  $ cat hello.c
  #include <stdio.h>
  int main() {
          printf("Hello\n");
          return 0;
  }
  $ cat hello.sh
  #! /bin/sh
  echo "Hello"
  $ gcc -static -o hello-static hello.c
  $ gcc -o hello-dynamic hello.c
  $ chmod 755 hello.sh

Case 1 -- Executing hello-static from bash.

  (1) The bash process calls fork() and the child process requests
      do_execve("hello-static").

  (2) The kernel checks "allow_execute hello-static" from "bash" domain.

  (3) The kernel calculates "bash hello-static" as the domain to transit to.

  (4) The kernel overwrites the child process by "hello-static".

  (5) The child process transits to "bash hello-static" domain.

  (6) The "hello-static" starts and finishes.

Case 2 -- Executing hello-dynamic from bash.

  (1) The bash process calls fork() and the child process requests
      do_execve("hello-dynamic").

  (2) The kernel checks "allow_execute hello-dynamic" from "bash" domain.

  (3) The kernel calculates "bash hello-dynamic" as the domain to transit to.

  (4) The kernel checks "allow_read ld-linux.so" from "bash hello-dynamic"
      domain. I think permission to access ld-linux.so should be charged
      hello-dynamic program, for "hello-dynamic needs ld-linux.so" is not
      a fault of bash program.

  (5) The kernel overwrites the child process by "hello-dynamic".

  (6) The child process transits to "bash hello-dynamic" domain.

  (7) The "hello-dynamic" starts and finishes.

Case 3 -- Executing hello.sh from bash.

  (1) The bash process calls fork() and the child process requests
      do_execve("hello.sh").

  (2) The kernel checks "allow_execute hello.sh" from "bash" domain.

  (3) The kernel calculates "bash hello.sh" as the domain to transit to.

  (4) The kernel checks "allow_read /bin/sh" from "bash hello.sh" domain.
      I think permission to access /bin/sh should be charged hello.sh program,
      for "hello.sh needs /bin/sh" is not a fault of bash program.

  (5) The kernel overwrites the child process by "/bin/sh".

  (6) The child process transits to "bash hello.sh" domain.

  (7) The "/bin/sh" requests open("hello.sh").

  (8) The kernel checks "allow_read hello.sh" from  "bash hello.sh" domain.

  (9) The "/bin/sh" starts and finishes.

Whether a file is interpreted as a program or not depends on an application.
The kernel cannot know whether the file is interpreted as a program or not.
Thus, TOMOYO treats "hello-static" "hello-dynamic" "ld-linux.so" "hello.sh"
"/bin/sh" equally as merely files; no distinction between executable and
non-executable. Therefore, TOMOYO doesn't check DAC's execute permission.
TOMOYO checks "allow_read" permission instead.

Calling do_execve() is a bold gesture that an old program's instance (i.e.
current process) is ready to be overwritten by a new program and is ready to
transfer control to the new program. To split purview of programs, TOMOYO
requires "allow_execute" permission of the new program against the old
program's instance and performs domain transition. If do_execve() succeeds,
the old program is no longer responsible against the consequence of the new
program's behavior. Only the new program is responsible for all consequences.

But TOMOYO doesn't require "allow_read" permission of the new program.
If TOMOYO requires "allow_read" permission of the new program, TOMOYO will
allow an attacker (who hijacked the old program's instance) to open the new
program and steal data from the new program. Requiring "allow_read" permission
will widen purview of the old program.

Not requiring "allow_read" permission of the new program against the old
program's instance is my design for reducing purview of the old program.
To be able to know whether the current process is in do_execve() or not,
I want to add in_execve flag to "task_struct".
