No, since kernel_bind() is preciely for use by the kernel to create sockets and no security checks are necessary (or make sense). So you just need to create a new helper shared by your function and sys_bind() which does the security check and calls sock->ops->bind(). -serge _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
