Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> says: This converts most users combining * prepare_creds() * modify new creds * override_creds() * revert_creds() * put_cred() to rely on credentials guards. * patches from https://patch.msgid.link/20251103-work-creds-guards-prepare_creds-v1-0-b447b82f2c9b@kernel.org: trace: use override credential guard trace: use prepare credential guard coredump: use override credential guard coredump: use prepare credential guard coredump: split out do_coredump() from vfs_coredump() coredump: mark struct mm_struct as const coredump: pass struct linux_binfmt as const coredump: move revert_cred() before coredump_cleanup() sev-dev: use override credential guards sev-dev: use prepare credential guard sev-dev: use guard for path cred: add prepare credential guard Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251103-work-creds-guards-prepare_creds-v1-0-b447b82f2c9b@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
