Subject: [PATCH 4.9 0/1] LSM: Initialize security_hook_heads upon registration.
Date: Thu, 11 Aug 2022 13:53:39 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220811115340.137901-1-theflamefire89@gmail.com> (raw)

This patch replaces some error-prone ~350 line long C&P initialization
code with a simple for-loop doing the same.

Conflict resolution was required due to commits missing in 4.9:
- ca97d939 (security: mark LSM hooks as __ro_after_init)
- 791ec491 (prlimit,security,selinux: add a security hook for prlimit)
- d69dece5 (LSM: Add /sys/kernel/security/lsm)

Those add new (security) features and hence are now allowed according to
the stable kernel rules. See e.g. rejection of the first patch for 4.9 in
https://lore.kernel.org/all/YsrfDfe3urGkepvJ@kroah.com/

If any of the above commits are reconsidered for 4.9 I can provide
backports of those.
