Subject: [PATCH] apparmor: hide unused get_loaddata_common_ref() function
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2026 14:59:31 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260316135935.3321551-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
The newly introduced function is only used in an #ifdef block,
which causes a harmless warning:
security/apparmor/apparmorfs.c:177:28: error: 'get_loaddata_common_ref' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
177 | static struct aa_loaddata *get_loaddata_common_ref(struct aa_common_ref *ref)
Move the definition next to the user to avoid the warning.
Fixes: 8e135b8aee5a ("apparmor: fix race between freeing data and fs accessing it")
Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
---
Alternatively, the #ifdef checks could be replaced with an
'if(IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SECURITY_APPARMOR_EXPORT_BINARY) return;'
check in __aa_fs_create_rawdata(), relying on the compiler's
dead code elimination.
