Subject: [PATCH 03/13] spufs: check for proper file pointer in sys_spu_run
Date: Wed, 04 Jan 2006 20:31:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060104194500.522025000@localhost> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20060104193120.050539000@localhost

[-- Attachment #1: spufs-run-check-fd.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2349 bytes --]

Only checking for SPUFS_MAGIC is not reliable, because
it might not be unique in theory. Worse than that,
we accidentally allow spu_run to be performed on
any file in spufs, not just those returned from
spu_create as intended.

Noticed by Al Viro.
