[PATCH 3.16 12/61] selinux: convert WARN_ONCE() to printk() in selinux_nlmsg_perm()

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

 



3.16.85-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Richard Guy Briggs <rgb@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit d950f84c1c6658faec2ecbf5b09f7e7191953394 upstream.

Convert WARN_ONCE() to printk() in selinux_nlmsg_perm().

After conversion from audit_log() in commit e173fb26, WARN_ONCE() was
deemed too alarmist, so switch it to printk().

Signed-off-by: Richard Guy Briggs <rgb@xxxxxxxxxx>
[PM: Changed to printk(WARNING) so we catch all of the different
 invalid netlink messages.  In Richard's defense, he brought this
 point up earlier, but I didn't understand his point at the time.]
