Linux kernel source tree

When auditing capabilities, AppArmor uses a per-CPU, per-profile cache such that the same capability for the same profile doesn't get repeatedly audited, with the original goal of reducing audit logspam. However, this cache does not have an expiration time, resulting in confusion when a profile is shared across binaries (for example) and an expected DENIED audit entry doesn't appear, despite the cache entry having been populated much longer ago. This confusion was exacerbated by the per-CPU nature of the cache resulting in the expected entries sporadically appearing when the later denial+audit occurred on a different CPU. To resolve this, record the last time a capability was audited for a profile and add a timestamp expiration check before doing the audit. v1 -> v2: - Hardcode a longer timeout and drop the patches making it a sysctl, after discussion with John Johansen. - Cache the expiration time instead of the last-audited time. This value can never be zero, which lets us drop the kernel_cap_t caps field from the cache struct.

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 reStructuredText 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.
