Subject: [PATCH] introduce kernel_execve
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6760856791c6e527da678021ee6a67896549d4da;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[PATCH] introduce kernel_execve

The use of execve() in the kernel is dubious, since it relies on the
__KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ mechanism that stores the result in a global errno
variable.  As a first step of getting rid of this, change all users to a
global kernel_execve function that returns a proper error code.

This function is a terrible hack, and a later patch removes it again after the
kernel syscalls are gone.
