Subject: [RFC PATCH v9 04/16] security: add new securityfs delete function
Date: Mon, 30 Jan 2023 14:57:19 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1675119451-23180-5-git-send-email-wufan@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1675119451-23180-1-git-send-email-wufan@linux.microsoft.com>
When deleting a directory in the security file system, the existing
securityfs_remove requires the directory to be empty, otherwise
it will do nothing. This leads to a potential risk that the security
file system might be in an unclean state when the intentded deletion
did not happen.
This commit introduces a new function securityfs_recursive_remove
to recursively delete a directory without leaving an unclean state.
