[PATCH v11 21/27] ima: Remove unused iints from the integrity_iint_cache
From: Stefan Berger
Date: Wed Mar 02 2022 - 08:51:08 EST
When the rbtree of an IMA namespace is torn down, also remove those iints
that are completely unused since only the torn-down namespace stored data
about the associated inode in it.
An iint is unused when the following two conditions are met:
- Its ns_status list is empty which means that no IMA namespace
currently has auditing related state stored in it.
- The iint's flags don't contain any of the flags IMA_MEASURE,
IMA_APPRAISE or IMA_HASH that the host would still store there.
It doesn't need an ns_status list for these but also only for
IMA_AUDIT.
Introduce the #define IMA_IINT_FLAGS that represent the mask to test the
iint->flags with in this case. This test provides the reason to keep the
iint if any of these flags are set.
The IMA_IINT_FLAGS mask will loose its flags as more flags are namespaced
and can then be removed in the end and only the check for the empty list
will remain.
Process the list of garbage-collected ns_status outside the locking of
the ns_status tree and related lock-group and free any iint that was
previously found to be unused while walking the list. File accesses, that
may have happened in the meantime, could have re-activated the iint and
therefore pass along the test function to check whether the iint is still
unused.
