Subject: [PATCH -next] cred: conditionally declare groups-related functions
Date: Thu, 21 Jun 2018 10:33:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180621083316.8765-1-omosnace@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAHC9VhQv26uPWSYmhNdhJ4QM+AMKK=JFkMmDftLb1WpvOUyN8Q@mail.gmail.com>
The groups-related functions declared in include/linux/cred.h are
defined in kernel/groups.c, which is compiled only when
CONFIG_MULTIUSER=y. Move all these function declarations under #ifdef
CONFIG_MULTIUSER to help avoid accidental usage in contexts where
CONFIG_MULTIUSER might be disabled.
This patch also adds a fallback for groups_search(). Currently this
function is only called from kernel/groups.c itself and
keys/permissions.c, which depends on CONFIG_MULTIUSER. However, the
audit subsystem (which does not depend on CONFIG_MULTIUSER) calls this
function in -next, so the fallback will be needed to avoid compilation
errors or ugly workarounds.
