Subject: [PATCH 02/20] SELinux: fix sleeping allocation in security_context_to_sid
Date: Tue, 8 Jul 2008 01:42:04 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1215448942-17581-3-git-send-email-jmorris@namei.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1215448942-17581-1-git-send-email-jmorris@namei.org>
From: Stephen Smalley <sds@tycho.nsa.gov>
Fix a sleeping function called from invalid context bug by moving allocation
to the callers prior to taking the policy rdlock.
