[PATCH 3/6] vfs: move MAY_EXEC check from __lookup_hash()

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

 



From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxx>

The only caller of __lookup_hash() that needs the exec permission check on
parent is lookup_one_len().

All lookup_hash() callers already checked permission in LOOKUP_PARENT walk.
