Its filename is exec-move-allow_write_access-fput-to-exec_binprm.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/exec-move-allow_write_access-fput-to-exec_binprm.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/exec-move-allow_write_access-fput-to-exec_binprm.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: exec: move allow_write_access/fput to exec_binprm() When search_binary_handler() succeeds it does allow_write_access() and fput(), then it clears bprm->file to ensure the caller will not do the same. We can simply move this code to exec_binprm() which is called only once. In fact we could move this to free_bprm() and remove the same code in do_execve_common's error path.
