[PATCH 2/2] virSetUIDGIDWithCaps: Assume PR_CAPBSET_DROP is always defined

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Bounding set capabilities were introduced in kernel commit of
v2.6.25-rc1~912. I guess it is safe to assume that all Linux
hosts we ran on have at least that version or newer.
