From e46e01eebbbcf2ff6d28ee7cae9f117e9d1572c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Smalley Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2018 10:10:56 -0500 Subject: selinux: stop passing MAY_NOT_BLOCK to the AVC upon follow_link commit bda0be7ad9948 ("security: make inode_follow_link RCU-walk aware") switched selinux_inode_follow_link() to use avc_has_perm_flags() and pass down the MAY_NOT_BLOCK flag if called during RCU walk. However, the only test of MAY_NOT_BLOCK occurs during slow_avc_audit() and only if passing an inode as audit data (LSM_AUDIT_DATA_INODE). Since selinux_inode_follow_link() passes a dentry directly, passing MAY_NOT_BLOCK here serves no purpose. Switch selinux_inode_follow_link() to use avc_has_perm() and drop avc_has_perm_flags() since there are no other users.
