Merge tag 'selinux-pr-20250527' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux
Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore: - Reduce the SELinux impact on path walks. Add a small directory access cache to the per-task SELinux state. This cache allows SELinux to cache the most recently used directory access decisions in order to avoid repeatedly querying the AVC on path walks where the majority of the directories have similar security contexts/labels. My performance measurements are crude, but prior to this patch the time spent in SELinux code on a 'make allmodconfig' run was 103% that of __d_lookup_rcu(), and with this patch the time spent in SELinux code dropped to 63% of __d_lookup_rcu(), a ~40% improvement. Additional improvments can be expected in the future, but those will require additional SELinux policy/toolchain support. - Add support for wildcards in genfscon policy statements. This patch allows for wildcards in the genfscon patch matching logic as opposed to the prefix matching that was used prior to this change. Adding wilcard support allows for more expressive and efficient path matching in the policy which is especially helpful for sysfs, and has resulted in a ~15% boot time reduction in Android. SELinux policies can opt into wilcard matching by using the "genfs_seclabel_wildcard" policy capability. - Unify the error/OOM handling of the SELinux network caches. A failure to allocate memory for the SELinux network caches isn't fatal as the object label can still be safely returned to the caller, it simply means that we cannot add the new data to the cache, at least temporarily. This patch corrects this behavior for the InfiniBand cache and does some minor cleanup. - Minor improvements around constification, 'likely' annotations, and removal of bogus comments. * tag 'selinux-pr-20250527' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux: selinux: fix the kdoc header for task_avdcache_update selinux: remove a duplicated include selinux: reduce path walk overhead selinux: support wildcard match in genfscon selinux: drop copy-paste comment selinux: unify OOM handling in network hashtables selinux: add likely hints for fast paths selinux: contify network namespace pointer selinux: constify network address pointer
