Documentation: security/credentials.rst: explain need to sort group_list

2018-01-08T21:20:31Z

This patch updates the documentation with the observations that led to commit bdcf0a423ea1 ("kernel: make groups_sort calling a responsibility group_info allocators") and the new behaviour required. Specifically that groups_sort() should be called on a new group_list before set_groups() or set_current_groups() is called.

doc: add documentation on printing kernel addresses

2017-12-21T20:39:27Z

Hashing addresses printed with printk specifier %p was implemented recently. During development a number of issues were raised regarding leaking kernel addresses to userspace. Other documentation was updated but security/self-protection missed out. Add self-protection documentation regarding printing kernel addresses. Signed-off-by: Tobin C.

KEYS: fix in-kernel documentation for keyctl_read()

2017-11-15T16:38:44Z

When keyctl_read() is passed a buffer that is too small, the behavior is inconsistent. Some key types will fill as much of the buffer as possible, while others won't copy anything. Moreover, the in-kernel documentation contradicted the man page on this point. Update the in-kernel documentation to say that this point is unspecified.
