Subject: [PATCH 15/40] UAPI: elf_read_implies_exec() is a kernel-only feature - so hide from userspace [ver #3]
Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2011 16:51:47 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110728155146.16618.91167.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110728154920.16618.89358.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk>

elf_read_implies_exec() is a kernel-only feature as the second parameter is a
constant that isn't exported to userspace.  Not only that, but the
arch-specific overrides are not exported either.

So hide the macro from userspace.

Similarly, struct file should not be predeclared in userspace.
