Subject: [PATCH v4 45/59] do_{renameat2,linkat,symlinkat}(): use CLASS(filename_consume)
Date: Thu, 8 Jan 2026 07:37:49 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260108073803.425343-46-viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260108073803.425343-1-viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
more explicit in what we do, lower odds of ending up with a leak,
fewer gotos...
... and if at some point in the future we decide to make some of those
non-consuming, it would be less noisy.
