Yes. but may I ask another one?
Shouldn't copy_process()->audit_alloc(tsk) path do
clear_tsk_thread_flag(tsk, TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT) if it doesn't
set tsk->audit_context?
I can be easily wrong, but afaics otherwise the child can run
with TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT bit copied from parent's thread_info by
dup_task_struct()->setup_thread_stack() and without ->audit_context,
right? For what?
Any other reason why audit_syscall_entry() checks context != NULL?
IOW. Any reason the patch below is wrong?
I am just curious, thanks.
Oleg.
