Subject: [PATCH] xenconsole: merge pty access check into when it is opened
Date: Sat, 30 Nov 2013 16:42:52 +1300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1385782972-22793-1-git-send-email-mattd@bugfuzz.com> (raw)
This stops pty_path from being leaked, and removes the toctou race,
FWIW.
Not sure why it's a separate check to begin with...
