You know what? I'm so fed up with that crap, that today Marcelo will get a patch killing proc_get_inode(), making proc_lookup() static and eliminating ->proc_iops completely.
Enough is enough. comx is the only user of that crap and all procfs code in comx is broken by design and trivially exploitable. It's unsalvagable and any attempt to fix it will amount to rewrite from scratch anyway.
It's not a new problem, it had been discussed to hell and back and comx folks could not have been arsed to do anything about it in what, 3 years? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
