Subject: [PATCH 01/28] KEYS: Increase the payload size when instantiating a key [try #2]
Date: Wed, 05 Dec 2007 19:38:23 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071205193823.24617.73107.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20071205193818.24617.79771.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk>

Increase the size of a payload that can be used to instantiate a key in
add_key() and keyctl_instantiate_key().  This permits huge CIFS SPNEGO blobs to
be passed around.  The limit is raised to 1MB.  If kmalloc() can't allocate a
buffer of sufficient size, vmalloc() will be tried instead.
