Prev: Linux 2.6.32.12
Next: [PATCH] KEYS: The request_key() syscall should link an existing key to the dest keyring
From: David Howells on 26 Apr 2010 11:10 The request_key() system call and request_key_and_link() should make a link from an existing key to the destination keyring (if supplied), not just from a new key to the destination keyring. This can be tested by: ring=`keyctl newring fred @s` keyctl request2 user debug:a a keyctl request user debug:a $ring keyctl list $ring If it says: keyring is empty then it didn't work. If it shows something like: 1 key in keyring: 1070462727: --alswrv 0 0 user: debug:a then it did.
