Subject: [PATCH v4 07/12] rlimits: do security check under task_lock
Date: Wed, 23 Jun 2010 23:52:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1277329933-8139-7-git-send-email-jslaby@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1277329933-8139-1-git-send-email-jslaby@suse.cz>

Do security_task_setrlimit under task_lock. Other tasks may change
limits under our hands while we are checking limits inside the
function. From now on, they can't.

Note that all the security work is done under a spinlock here now.
Security hooks count with that, they are called from interrupt context
(like security_task_kill) and with spinlocks already held (e.g.
capable->security_capable).
