[ Upstream commit eb0782bbdfd0d7c4786216659277c3fd585afc0e ]
The current IMA ruleset is identified by the variable "ima_rules"
that default to "&ima_default_rules". When loading a custom policy
for the first time, the variable is updated to "&ima_policy_rules"
instead. That update isn't RCU-safe, and deadlocks are possible.
Indeed, some functions like ima_match_policy() may loop indefinitely
when traversing "ima_default_rules" with list_for_each_entry_rcu().
When iterating over the default ruleset back to head, if the list
head is "ima_default_rules", and "ima_rules" have been updated to
"&ima_policy_rules", the loop condition (&entry->list != ima_rules)
stays always true, traversing won't terminate, causing a soft lockup
and RCU stalls.
Introduce a temporary value for "ima_rules" when iterating over
the ruleset to avoid the deadlocks.
Addition:
A rcu_read_lock pair is added within ima_update_policy_flag to avoid
suspicious RCU usage warning. This pair of RCU lock was added with
commit 4f2946aa0c45 ("IMA: introduce a new policy option
func=SETXATTR_CHECK") on mainstream.
