[Devel] [PATCH 3/6] cr: capabilities: define checkpoint and restore fns

Serge E. Hallyn serue at us.ibm.com
Mon May 18 18:45:28 PDT 2009


An application checkpoint image will store capability sets
(and the bounding set) as __u64s.  Define checkpoint and
restart functions to translate between those and kernel_cap_t's.

Define a common function do_capset_tocred() which applies capability
set changes to a passed-in struct cred.

The restore function uses do_capset_tocred() to apply the restored
capabilities to the struct cred being crafted, subject to the
current task's (task executing sys_restart()) permissions.

TODO: one day we'll want to c/r the securebits as well.
