This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled rpc: clean up decoding of gssproxy linux creds to the 3.11-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: rpc-clean-up-decoding-of-gssproxy-linux-creds.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.11 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 778e512bb1d3315c6b55832248cd30c566c081d7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 21 Aug 2013 10:32:52 -0400 Subject: rpc: clean up decoding of gssproxy linux creds From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 778e512bb1d3315c6b55832248cd30c566c081d7 upstream. We can use the normal coding infrastructure here. Two minor behavior changes: - we're assuming no wasted space at the end of the linux cred. That seems to match gss-proxy's behavior, and I can't see why it would need to do differently in the future. - NGROUPS_MAX check added: note groups_alloc doesn't do this, this is the caller's responsibility.
