CRED: Introduce credential access wrappers
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The patches that are intended to introduce copy-on-write credentials for 2.6.28
require abstraction of access to some fields of the task structure,
particularly for the case of one task accessing another's credentials where RCU
will have to be observed.

Introduced here are trivial no-op versions of the desired accessors for current
and other tasks so that other subsystems can start to be converted over more
easily.

Wrappers are introduced into a new header (linux/cred.h) for UID/GID,
EUID/EGID, SUID/SGID, FSUID/FSGID, cap_effective and current's subscribed
user_struct.  These wrappers are macros because the ordering between header
files mitigates against making them inline functions.

linux/cred.h is #included from linux/sched.h.

Further, XFS is modified such that it no longer defines and uses parameterised
versions of current_fs[ug]id(), thus getting rid of the namespace collision
otherwise incurred.
