[PATCH 0/4] keys: Miscellaneous fixes

From: David Howells
Date: Thu Feb 14 2019 - 11:19:52 EST



Hi James,

Here are some keyrings fixes.

(1) Handle quotas better, allowing full quota to be reached.

(2) Fix the creation of shortcuts in the assoc_array internal
representation when the index key needs to be an exact multiple of the
machine word size.

(3) Fix a dependency loop between the request_key contruction record and
the request_key authentication key. The construction record isn't
really necessary and can be dispensed with.

(4) Set the timestamp on a new key rather than leaving it as 0. This
would ordinarily be fine - provided the system clock is never set to a
time before 1970.

The patches can be found here tagged thusly:
