| |
Hello Linus,
Here is the Smack pull request for v6.4.
There are two changes. One is the removal of an unnecessary cast. The other is more substantial. The mount option processing introduced with the mount rework makes copies of mount option values. There is no good reason to make copies of Smack labels, as they are maintained on a list and never removed. The code now uses pointers to entries on the list, reducing processing time and memory use. These changes have been in the next branch and pass all tests. Thank you.
The following changes since commit fe15c26ee26efa11741a7b632e9f23b01aca4cc6:
