Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2007 13:41:52 +0000 From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@...radead.org> To: akpm@...l.org, zohar@...ibm.com, kjhall@...ibm.com Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: mprotect abuse in slim Folks, WTF were you smoking when writing the slim code? Calling mprotect from random code to rewoke write permissions on process is not okay. As is poking into the dile desriptor tables. As is ding permission checks based on d_path output. Andrew, could you please just drop slim? The code isn't any better than the last few times they submitted this junk, and it still doesn't serve any real-life purpose. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
