Subject: Re: [PATCH] Fix the kernel panic of audit_filter_task when key field is set
Date: Sat, 02 Aug 2008 10:56:37 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4893CCE5.7020907@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4893CBA9.9020008@cn.fujitsu.com>

Sorry, I miss a blank between if and "(". 
And I add "unlikely" to check "ctx" in audit_match_perm() and audit_match_filetype().
This is a new patch for it.
