I can't comment on the concept, but have one nit.

Also since you are just putting 0 in there anyway I don't see much point in testing for it. > + context->cmdline = buf; > + } > + msg = context->cmdline; > +out: > + audit_log_untrustedstring(ab, msg); > +} > + -- Mateusz Guzik -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
