... except that it simply confirms that something's fishy with getname_kernel()
of ->name of struct filename returned by getname(). IOW, I still do not
understand the mechanism of breakage there.
Another thing I really do not understand is
+ if (inode->i_ino) {
+ /* valid inode number, use that for the comparison */
+ if (n->ino != inode->i_ino ||
+ n->dev != inode->i_sb->s_dev)
+ continue;
in __audit_inode(). We don't *have* dentries with dentry->d_inode->i_ino == 0.
Ever. WTF is that about? Paul?
