[PATCH 3/3] exporting capability code/name pairs (try 2nd)

[PATCH 3/3] exporting capability code/name pairs (try 2nd)

[Kohei KaiGai]

We can apply this patch to libcap.

This patch enables setcap command to print the list
of capabilities running kernel supported, if the kernel
exports capability code/name pairs.
It is useful to confirm the name of capability when setting.

Thanks,
