[PATCH v2 2/7] ima: Remove inode lock

Roberto Sassu roberto.sassu at huaweicloud.com
Thu Nov 28 10:06:15 UTC 2024


From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu at huawei.com>

Move out the mutex in the ima_iint_cache structure to a new structure
called ima_iint_cache_lock, so that a lock can be taken regardless of
whether or not inode integrity metadata are stored in the inode.

Introduce ima_inode_security() to retrieve the ima_iint_cache_lock
structure, if inode i_security is not NULL, and consequently remove
ima_inode_get_iint() and ima_inode_set_iint(), since the ima_iint_cache
structure can be read and modified from the new structure.

Move the mutex initialization and annotation in the new function
ima_inode_alloc_security() and introduce ima_iint_lock() and
ima_iint_unlock() to respectively lock and unlock the mutex.

Finally, expand the critical region in process_measurement() guarded by
iint->mutex up to where the inode was locked, use only one iint lock in
__ima_inode_hash(), since the mutex is now in the inode security blob, and
replace the inode_lock()/inode_unlock() calls in ima_check_last_writer().
