[cifs-utils PATCH] cifs.upcall: trim even more capabilities

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

 



We really only need CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH, not CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE, and
only when we are going to probe the environ file.

Also, fix the non-libcap-ng trim_capabilities prototype.
