If it is the intention, what should the application do when it get -ENOMEM error, to try again? If it is a bug, may the two options below suitable to solve the issue? Option1: use policy_rwlock to protect the "sidtab_shutdown" & "sidtab_map" , load_policy is rarely to be called after system bringing up, so i think it will not impact much on the performance. Option2: Use a temp list to store the sid in oldsidtab after it is shutdown, and deal with it after cloning the major sids from oldsidtab to newsidtab and getting the policy_rwlock. The current logic is intentional. One might argue that a different error code might be more suitable in this situation (e.g. EAGAIN or something), but ENOMEM is already a possible error code when loading policy upon transient OOM conditions, so the caller might have to retry regardless. The policy write lock must only be held for the minimal critical section as otherwise all system activity could be blocked; it is only held when making the new policydb and sidtab active not during their allocation and setup - ideally it would be further reduced to a couple of pointer updates. Is this scenario something you are encountering in actual practice or just a theoretically possible one?Thank you very much for your reply. Yes, we encounter this issue in our implementation. We have an intertion in our design that we can divide the policy into several parts to load separately. So after the red-hat linux bringing up, which has loaded the system policy db released by redhat, we begin to load the policy released by our product , and meanwhile someone want to start a docker container, and the runc get an ENOMEM error like i mentioned above. Should we merge all the policy into the system policy db and just load once?-- Best RegardsLi KunTypically you would install your policy module when your package is installed and not need to do it at runtime.
Would you think it's suibable to change the error code to EAGAIN？ -- Best Regards Li Kun
