Subject: [PATCH] sysctl: implement sysctl_uts_string()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c4b8b769fa9051838d2772886ecd0ee2a926ddc3;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

[PATCH] sysctl: implement sysctl_uts_string()

The problem: When using sys_sysctl we don't read the proper values for the
variables exported from the uts namespace, nor do we do the proper locking.

This patch introduces sysctl_uts_string which properly fetches the values and
does the proper locking.
