Hello Jamie, or anyone else affected, Accepted apparmor into disco-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apparmor/2.13.2-9ubuntu6.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-disco to verification-done-disco. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-disco. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: apparmor (Ubuntu Disco) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-disco -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apparmor in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1820068 Title: specifying -O no-expr-simplify results in cache miss Status in AppArmor: Fix Released Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in apparmor source package in Disco: Fix Committed Status in apparmor source package in Eoan: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] * AppArmor 2.13 unconditionally invalidates its cache when parser options are specified. To decrease compile times for ARM systems, -O no-expr-simplify has been used in Ubuntu for click and snap policy for many years, but was temporarily disabled during the disco development release with the 2.13 upload so caching properly worked everywhere. Now that a simple upstream workaround is available (and already in eoan), we'd like to apply the upstream patch and re-enable -O no-expr-simplify. * A condition of the AppArmor 2.13 feature freeze exception was to fix this bug in SRU to re-enable -O no-expr-simplify. This will help compile times for all architectures with default and typical AppArmor policy (ie, a mixture of (distro) system and snap policy), but especially ARM systems with snaps where the improvement could be in terms of minutes saved. * Specifically, the upstream patch workaround to no longer unconditionally skip reading the cache when parser options are specified. It also re-enables an existing quilt patch to update /etc/apparmor/parser.conf to use no-expr-simplify. [Test Case] # setup $ mkdir -p /tmp/aa/cache /tmp/aa/profiles $ cp /etc/apparmor.d/sbin.dhclient /tmp/aa/profiles/ # no options, no cache, expect a miss and to write $ /sbin/apparmor_parser -k --write-cache --cache-loc=/tmp/aa/cache --skip-kernel-load --add -- /tmp/aa/profiles Cache: added primary location '/tmp/aa/cache' Cache miss: /tmp/aa/profiles/sbin.dhclient Wrote cache: /tmp/aa/cache/26b63962.0/sbin.dhclient # no options, cache, expect a hit $ /sbin/apparmor_parser -k --write-cache --cache-loc=/tmp/aa/cache --skip-kernel-load --add -- /tmp/aa/profiles Cache: added primary location '/tmp/aa/cache' Cache hit: /tmp/aa/cache/26b63962.0/sbin.dhclient # reset $ rm -rf /tmp/aa/cache/* # options, no cache, expect a miss and to write $ /sbin/apparmor_parser -k --write-cache --cache-loc=/tmp/aa/cache --skip-kernel-load -O no-expr-simplify --add -- /tmp/aa/profiles Cache: added primary location '/tmp/aa/cache' Cache miss: /tmp/aa/profiles/sbin.dhclient Wrote cache: /tmp/aa/cache/26b63962.0/sbin.dhclient # options, cache, expect a hit $ /sbin/apparmor_parser -k --write-cache --cache-loc=/tmp/aa/cache --skip-kernel-load -O no-expr-simplify --add -- /tmp/aa/profiles Cache: added primary location '/tmp/aa/cache' Cache miss: /tmp/aa/profiles/sbin.dhclient # SHOULD BE A HIT Wrote cache: /tmp/aa/cache/26b63962.0/sbin.dhclient Same thing happens if omitting -O no-expr-simplify but add Optimize =no-expr-simplify to /etc/apparmor/parser.conf. [Regression Potential] The regression potential is considered low since the patch is simple and easily verifiable. If something went wrong, it would be around cache invalidation which the above test case will demonstrate it works correctly. # Original description With 2.13.2 and the most recent testsuite patches from the 2.13 branch, I find that the cache works correctly when no options are specified. Eg # setup $ mkdir -p /tmp/aa/cache /tmp/aa/profiles $ cp /etc/apparmor.d/sbin.dhclient /tmp/aa/profiles/ # no options, no cache, expect a miss and to write $ /sbin/apparmor_parser -k --write-cache --cache-loc=/tmp/aa/cache --skip-kernel-load --add -- /tmp/aa/profiles Cache: added primary location '/tmp/aa/cache' Cache miss: /tmp/aa/profiles/sbin.dhclient Wrote cache: /tmp/aa/cache/26b63962.0/sbin.dhclient # no options, cache, expect a hit $ /sbin/apparmor_parser -k --write-cache --cache-loc=/tmp/aa/cache --skip-kernel-load --add -- /tmp/aa/profiles Cache: added primary location '/tmp/aa/cache' Cache hit: /tmp/aa/cache/26b63962.0/sbin.dhclient # reset $ rm -rf /tmp/aa/cache/* # options, no cache, expect a miss and to write $ /sbin/apparmor_parser -k --write-cache --cache-loc=/tmp/aa/cache --skip-kernel-load -O no-expr-simplify --add -- /tmp/aa/profiles Cache: added primary location '/tmp/aa/cache' Cache miss: /tmp/aa/profiles/sbin.dhclient Wrote cache: /tmp/aa/cache/26b63962.0/sbin.dhclient # options, cache, expect a hit $ /sbin/apparmor_parser -k --write-cache --cache-loc=/tmp/aa/cache --skip-kernel-load -O no-expr-simplify --add -- /tmp/aa/profiles Cache: added primary location '/tmp/aa/cache' Cache miss: /tmp/aa/profiles/sbin.dhclient # SHOULD BE A HIT Wrote cache: /tmp/aa/cache/26b63962.0/sbin.dhclient Same thing happens if omitting -O no-expr-simplify but add Optimize =no-expr-simplify to /etc/apparmor/parser.conf.
