net,lsm,selinux: revert the security_sctp_assoc_established() hook
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This patch reverts two prior patches, e7310c9
("security: implement sctp_assoc_established hook in selinux") and
7c2ef02 ("security: add sctp_assoc_established hook"), which
create the security_sctp_assoc_established() LSM hook and provide a
SELinux implementation.  Unfortunately these two patches were merged
without proper review (the Reviewed-by and Tested-by tags from
Richard Haines were for previous revisions of these patches that
were significantly different) and there are outstanding objections
from the SELinux maintainers regarding these patches.

Work is currently ongoing to correct the problems identified in the
reverted patches, as well as others that have come up during review,
but it is unclear at this point in time when that work will be ready
for inclusion in the mainline kernel.  In the interest of not keeping
objectionable code in the kernel for multiple weeks, and potentially
a kernel release, we are reverting the two problematic patches.

Also the following security hook has been utilised::

security_inet_conn_established()

The usage of these hooks are described below with the SELinux implementation
described in the `SCTP SELinux Support`_ chapter.

``security_sctp_assoc_request()``, ``security_sctp_assoc_established()`` when
``security_sctp_assoc_request()``, ``security_inet_conn_established()`` when
