selinux: Introduce a new config to make avc cache slot size adjustable
On mobile device high-load situations, permission check can happen
more than 90,000/s (8 core system). With default 512 cache nodes
configuration, avc cache miss happens more often and occasionally
leads to long time (>2ms) irqs off on both big and little cores,
which decreases system real-time capability.
An actual call stack is as follows:
=> avc_compute_av
=> avc_perm_nonode
=> avc_has_perm_noaudit
=> selinux_capable
=> security_capable
=> capable
=> __sched_setscheduler
=> do_sched_setscheduler
=> __arm64_sys_sched_setscheduler
=> invoke_syscall
=> el0_svc_common
=> do_el0_svc
=> el0_svc
=> el0t_64_sync_handler
=> el0t_64_sync
Although we can expand avc nodes through /sys/fs/selinux/cache_threshold
to mitigate long time irqs off, hash conflicts make the bucket average
length longer because of the fixed size of cache slots, leading to
avc_search_node() latency increase.
So introduce a new config to make avc cache slot size also configurable,
and with fine tuning, we can mitigate long time irqs off with slightly
avc_search_node() performance regression.
Theoretically, the main overhead is memory consumption.
