From 5202efe544c279be152f44f2821010ff7b2d7e5b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicolas Iooss Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2015 15:03:51 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] coredump: use from_kuid/kgid when formatting corename When adding __printf attribute to cn_printf, gcc reports some issues: fs/coredump.c:213:5: warning: format '%d' expects argument of type 'int', but argument 3 has type 'kuid_t' [-Wformat=] err = cn_printf(cn, "%d", cred->uid); ^ fs/coredump.c:217:5: warning: format '%d' expects argument of type 'int', but argument 3 has type 'kgid_t' [-Wformat=] err = cn_printf(cn, "%d", cred->gid); ^ These warnings come from the fact that the value of uid/gid needs to be extracted from the kuid_t/kgid_t structure before being used as an integer. More precisely, cred->uid and cred->gid need to be converted to either user-namespace uid/gid or to init_user_ns uid/gid. Use init_user_ns in order not to break existing ABI, and document this in Documentation/sysctl/kernel.txt. While at it, format uid and gid values with %u instead of %d because uid_t/__kernel_uid32_t and gid_t/__kernel_gid32_t are unsigned int. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Iooss Acked-by: "Eric W.
