Subject: [PATCH] dmabuf: use spinlock to access dmabuf->name
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

There exists a sleep-while-atomic bug while accessing the dmabuf->name under mutex in the dmabuffs_dname(). This is caused from the SELinux permissions checks on a process where it tries to validate the inherited files from fork() by traversing them through iterate_fd() (which traverse files under spin_lock) and call match_file(security/selinux/hooks.c) where the permission checks happen. This audit information is logged using dump_common_audit_data() where it calls d_path() to get the file path name. If the file check happen on the dmabuf's fd, then it ends up in ->dmabuffs_dname() and use mutex to access dmabuf->name. The flow will be like below:
flush_unauthorized_files()
iterate_fd()

    spin_lock() --> Start of the atomic section.
      match_file()
        file_has_perm()
          avc_has_perm()
            avc_audit()
              slow_avc_audit()
	        common_lsm_audit()
		  dump_common_audit_data()
		    audit_log_d_path()
		      d_path()
                        dmabuffs_dname()
                          mutex_lock()--> Sleep while atomic.

So, use spinlock to access dmabuf->name to avoid sleep-while-atomic.
