This patch reverts two TOMOYO patches that were merged into Linus' tree
during the v6.12 merge window:
8b985bbfabbe ("tomoyo: allow building as a loadable LSM module")
268225a1de1a ("tomoyo: preparation step for building as a loadable LSM module")
Together these two patches introduced the CONFIG_SECURITY_TOMOYO_LKM
Kconfig build option which enabled a TOMOYO specific dynamic LSM loading
mechanism (see the original commits for more details). Unfortunately,
this approach was widely rejected by the LSM community as well as some
members of the general kernel community. Objections included concerns
over setting a bad precedent regarding individual LSMs managing their
LSM callback registrations as well as general kernel symbol exporting
practices. With little to no support for the CONFIG_SECURITY_TOMOYO_LKM
approach outside of Tetsuo, and multiple objections, we need to revert
these changes.

One of concerns for enabling TOMOYO in prebuilt kernels is that distributor
wants to avoid bloating kernel packages. Although boot-time kernel command
line options allows selecting built-in LSMs to enable, file size increase
of vmlinux and memory footprint increase of vmlinux caused by builtin-but-
not-enabled LSMs remains. If it becomes possible to make LSMs dynamically
appendable after boot using loadable kernel modules, these problems will
go away.
Another of concerns for enabling TOMOYO in prebuilt kernels is that who can
provide support when distributor cannot provide support. Due to "those who
compiled kernel code is expected to provide support for that kernel code"
spell, TOMOYO is failing to get enabled in Fedora distribution [1]. The
point of loadable kernel module is to share the workload. If it becomes
possible to make LSMs dynamically appendable after boot using loadable
kernel modules, as with people can use device drivers not supported by
distributors but provided by third party device vendors, we can break
this spell and can lower the barrier for using TOMOYO.
This patch is intended for demonstrating that there is nothing difficult
for supporting TOMOYO-like loadable LSM modules. For now we need to live
with a mixture of built-in part and loadable part because fully loadable
LSM modules are not supported since Linux 2.6.24 [2] and number of LSMs
which can reserve static call slots is determined at compile time in
Linux 6.12.
Major changes in this patch are described below.
There are no behavior changes as long as TOMOYO is built into vmlinux.
Add CONFIG_SECURITY_TOMOYO_LKM as "bool" instead of changing
CONFIG_SECURITY_TOMOYO from "bool" to "tristate", for something went
wrong with how Makefile is evaluated if I choose "tristate".
Add proxy.c for serving as a bridge between vmlinux and tomoyo.ko .
Move callback functions from init.c to proxy.c when building as a loadable
LSM module. init.c is built-in part and remains for reserving static call
slots. proxy.c contains module's init function and tells init.c location of
callback functions, making it possible to use static call for tomoyo.ko .
By deferring initialization of "struct tomoyo_task" until tomoyo.ko is
loaded, threads created between init.c reserved LSM hooks and proxy.c
updates LSM hooks will have NULL "struct tomoyo_task" instances. Assuming
that tomoyo.ko is loaded by the moment when the global init process starts,
initialize "struct tomoyo_task" instance for current thread as a kernel
thread when tomoyo_task(current) is called for the first time.
There is a hack for exporting currently not-exported functions.
This hack will be removed after all relevant functions are exported.

bin2c was, as its name implies, introduced to convert a binary file to
C code.
However, I did not see any good reason ever for using this tool because
using the .incbin directive is much faster, and often results in simpler
code.
Most of the uses of bin2c have been killed, for example:
- 13610aa908dc ("kernel/configs: use .incbin directive to embed config_data.gz")
- 4c0f032d4963 ("s390/purgatory: Omit use of bin2c")
security/tomoyo/Makefile has even less reason for using bin2c because
the policy files are text data. So, sed is enough for converting them
to C string literals, and what is nicer, generates human-readable
builtin-policy.h.
This is the last user of bin2c. After this commit lands, bin2c will be
removed.

Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.
This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.
There are a variety of indentation styles found.
a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation)
f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'
In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:
$ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

syzbot is reporting kernel panic triggered by memory allocation fault
injection before loading TOMOYO's policy [1]. To make the fuzzing tests
useful, we need to assign a profile other than "disabled" (no-op) mode.
Therefore, let's allow syzbot to load TOMOYO's built-in policy for
"learning" mode using a kernel config option. This option must not be
enabled for kernels built for production system, for this option also
disables domain/program checks when modifying policy configuration via
/sys/kernel/security/tomoyo/ interface.

SRCU is not necessary to be compiled by default in all cases. For tinification
efforts not compiling SRCU unless necessary is desirable.
The current patch tries to make compiling SRCU optional by introducing a new
Kconfig option CONFIG_SRCU which is selected when any of the components making
use of SRCU are selected.
If we do not select CONFIG_SRCU, srcu.o will not be compiled at all.

To be able to start using enforcing mode from the early stage of boot sequence,
this patch adds support for activating access control without calling external
policy loader program. This will be useful for systems where operations which
can lead to the hijacking of the boot sequence are needed before loading the
policy. For example, you can activate immediately after loading the fixed part
of policy which will allow only operations needed for mounting a partition
which contains the variant part of policy and verifying (e.g. running GPG
check) and loading the variant part of policy. Since you can start using
enforcing mode from the beginning, you can reduce the possibility of hijacking
the boot sequence.
This patch makes several variables configurable on build time. This patch also
adds TOMOYO_loader= and TOMOYO_trigger= kernel command line option to boot the
same kernel in two different init systems (BSD-style init and systemd).
