[PATCH v3 01/12] ima: Have the LSM free its audit rule

From: Tyler Hicks
Date: Thu Jul 09 2020 - 02:20:04 EST


Ask the LSM to free its audit rule rather than directly calling kfree().
Both AppArmor and SELinux do additional work in their audit_rule_free()
hooks. Fix memory leaks by allowing the LSMs to perform necessary work.

Fixes: b16942455193 ("ima: use the lsm policy update notifier")

* v3
- No change
* v2
- Fixed build warning by dropping the 'return -EINVAL' from
the stubbed out security_filter_rule_free() since it has a void
return type
- Added Mimi's Reviewed-by
- Developed a follow-on patch to rename security_filter_rule_*()
functions, to address Casey's request, but I'll submit it
independently of this patch series since it is somewhat unrelated
