From: David Howells Date: Fri, 8 May 2009 12:55:22 +0000 (+0100) Subject: CRED: Rename cred_exec_mutex to reflect that it's a guard against ptrace X-Git-Tag: v2.6.31-rc1~395^2^2~31 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5e751e992f3fb08ba35e1ca8095ec8fbf9eda523;p=pandora-kernel.git CRED: Rename cred_exec_mutex to reflect that it's a guard against ptrace Rename cred_exec_mutex to reflect that it's a guard against foreign intervention on a process's credential state, such as is made by ptrace(). The attachment of a debugger to a process affects execve()'s calculation of the new credential state - _and_ also setprocattr()'s calculation of that state.
