security_inode_getsecurity() provides the text string value of a security attribute. It does not provide a "secctx". The code in xattr_getsecurity() that calls security_inode_getsecurity() and then calls security_release_secctx() happened to work because SElinux and Smack treat the attribute and the secctx the same way. It fails for cap_inode_getsecurity(), because that module has no secctx that ever needs releasing. It turns out that Smack is the one that's doing things wrong by not allocating memory when instructed to do so by the "alloc" parameter. The fix is simple enough. Change the security_release_secctx() to kfree() because it isn't a secctx being returned by security_inode_getsecurity(). Change Smack to allocate the string when told to do so. Note: this also fixes memory leaks for LSMs which implement inode_getsecurity but not release_secctx, such as capabilities.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
