dmabuf: use spinlock to access dmabuf->name
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. Call trace captured (on 4.19 kernels) is below: ___might_sleep+0x204/0x208 __might_sleep+0x50/0x88 __mutex_lock_common+0x5c/0x1068 __mutex_lock_common+0x5c/0x1068 mutex_lock_nested+0x40/0x50 dmabuffs_dname+0xa0/0x170 d_path+0x84/0x290 audit_log_d_path+0x74/0x130 common_lsm_audit+0x334/0x6e8 slow_avc_audit+0xb8/0xf8 avc_has_perm+0x154/0x218 file_has_perm+0x70/0x180 match_file+0x60/0x78 iterate_fd+0x128/0x168 selinux_bprm_committing_creds+0x178/0x248 security_bprm_committing_creds+0x30/0x48 install_exec_creds+0x1c/0x68 load_elf_binary+0x3a4/0x14e0 search_binary_handler+0xb0/0x1e0 So, use spinlock to access dmabuf->name to avoid sleep-while-atomic.
