Wrapping Ext4 credential accesses

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

 



Hi Ted,

Can you add the attached patch into the ext4 tree please?  It wraps credential
accesses (current->fsuid -> current_fsuid() for example) so that moving to a
detached cred structure is easier.  The prerequisite patch has been upstream
for a while.  Hopefully we can get Linus to take the rest of the patches in
the next merge window.

This'll make it easier for Stephen Rothwell to maintain linux-next.

Thanks,
David

CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the Ext4 filesystem

Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from
the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds.

Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id().

Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id().  In some places it makes more
sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be
addressed by later patches.
