[RFC PATCH 1/9] keys: Invalidate used request_key authentication keys

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

 



Invalidate used request_key authentication keys rather than revoking them
so that they get cleaned up immediately rather than potentially hanging
around.  There doesn't seem any need to keep the revoked keys around.
