Subject: [PATCH v2 05/11] ima: allocating iint improvements
Date: Thu,  1 Mar 2012 14:10:42 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1330629048-5933-6-git-send-email-zohar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1330629048-5933-1-git-send-email-zohar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

From: Dmitry Kasatkin <dmitry.kasatkin@intel.com>

With IMA-appraisal's removal of the iint mutex and taking the i_mutex
instead, allocating the iint becomes a lot simplier, as we don't need
to be concerned with two processes racing to allocate the iint. This
patch cleans up and improves performance for allocating the iint.

- removed redundant double i_mutex locking
- combined iint allocation with tree search

Changelog v2:
- removed the rwlock/read_lock changes from this patch
