Any chance you could fix your mailer?
Hi Mimi

not sure how to fix this. I need to send from @huaweicloud.com because
some people didn't receive the patches from @huawei.com. But I still
prefer to have the original email in the patches.

Thanks

Roberto

Commit f3cc6b25dcc5 ("ima: always measure and audit files in
policy") lets
measurement or audit happen even if the file digest cannot be
calculated.

As a result, iint->ima_hash could have been allocated despite
ima_collect_measurement() returning an error.

Since ima_hash belongs to a temporary inode metadata structure,
declared
at the beginning of __ima_inode_hash(), just add a kfree() call if
ima_collect_measurement() returns an error different from -ENOMEM
(in that
case, ima_hash should not have been allocated).

Fixes: 280fe8367b0d ("ima: Always return a file measurement in
ima_file_hash()")
