[RFC][PATCH 0/3] exec_update_mutex related cleanups
From: Eric W. Biederman
Date: Mon Apr 06 2020 - 21:32:43 EST
Linus,
Since you rightly pointed out the code in fs/exec.c is less readable
than it should be right now. Here is where I currently sit on making
that code static where possible and as obvious as possible.
I will resend this after the merge window for a proper review when
people are less likely to be distrcacted but I figured I might as well
send this out now so I can see if anyone runs screaming from this code.
Eric W. Biederman (3):
binfmt: Move install_exec_creds after setup_new_exec to match binfmt_elf
exec: Make unlocking exec_update_mutex explict
exec: Rename the flag called_exec_mmap point_of_no_return
