[PATCH v2 03/11] LSM: fix documentation for the socket_post_create hook

From: Denis Efremov
Date: Tue Feb 26 2019 - 15:50:50 EST


This patch slightly fixes the documentation for the
socket_post_create hook. The documentation states that
i_security field is accessible through inode field of socket
structure (i.e., 'sock->inode->i_security'). There is no inode
field in the socket structure. The i_security field is accessible
through SOCK_INODE macro. The patch updates the documentation
to reflect this.
