Linux Kernel Configs for Popular Distros

CI status

There is often a need to check a kernel config and other OS configuration to make a dev/design decision. The question often pops-up, does the popular distributions support the kernel config that the implementation expects? This is an attempt to answer that.

My specific use-case: KubeArmor leverages LSMs (Linux Security Modules) and eBPF for in-kernel policy controls. We had to refer to kernel configs for making design/dev decisions regarding whether we can depend on a certain kernel primitive. The boot configs part of this repo helped in making an informed choice.

Note: The lists below are sorted based on kernel version number.

Few LSMs are not stackable. For example, AppArmor and SELinux are not stackable. If you find that support for both SELinux and AppArmor are available, then only one can be enabled at boot time.

BPF LSM is the new kid on the block. BPF LSM depends on bpf-helpers and they vary from kernel to kernel.

Support flags have been changed in different kernel versions, hence multiple flags.

  1. Create a new composition file. Use tools/compositions/lsm.yaml as ref.
  2. Do a make
  3. Check if the composition is reflected in the README.md
  4. Raise a PR with the changes
