Subject: [PATCH 4.9 0/6] Convert isec->lock into a spinlock fixing deadlock on GFS2
Date: Sat, 30 Jul 2022 19:03:37 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220730170343.11477-1-theflamefire89@gmail.com> (raw)
This patchset backports basically upstream commit 9287aed2
(selinux: Convert isec->lock into a spinlock). This
"fixes a deadlock between selinux and GFS2 when GFS2 invalidates a security label",
see the original discussion at
https://lore.kernel.org/all/1478812710-17190-2-git-send-email-agruenba@redhat.com/T/
It also contains the follow-up fixes to make this correct.
The first 3 commits (by Andreas) are valuable on their own too as
they fix a documentation bug, avoid partially initialized structs
and (slightly) improve performance while making the code cleaner.
Andreas Gruenbacher (4):
selinux: Minor cleanups
proc: Pass file mode to proc_pid_make_inode
selinux: Clean up initialization of isec->sclass
selinux: Convert isec->lock into a spinlock
Paul Moore (1):
selinux: fix inode_doinit_with_dentry() LABEL_INVALID error handling
Tianyue Ren (1):
selinux: fix error initialization in inode_doinit_with_dentry()
