Subject: [PATCH v2 07/11] ima: Shallow copy the args_p member of ima_rule_entry.lsm elements
Date: Fri, 26 Jun 2020 17:38:56 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200626223900.253615-8-tyhicks@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200626223900.253615-1-tyhicks@linux.microsoft.com>

The args_p member is a simple string that is allocated by
ima_rule_init(). Shallow copy it like other non-LSM references in
ima_rule_entry structs.

There are no longer any necessary error path cleanups to do in
ima_lsm_copy_rule().

Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.microsoft.com>

* v2
  - Adjusted context to account for ima_lsm_copy_rule() directly calling
    ima_lsm_free_rule() and the lack of explicit reference ownership
    transfers
  - Added comment to ima_lsm_copy_rule() to document the args_p
    reference ownership transfer
