[PATCH v1 1/7] landlock: Fix landlock_add_rule(2) documentation

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

 



From: Mickaël Salaün <mic@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

It is not mandatory to pass a file descriptor obtained with the O_PATH
flag.  Also, replace rule's accesses with ruleset's accesses.
