Subject: [PATCH 1/1] file capabilities: get_file_caps cleanups

Two cleanups relating to set_file caps.

Rename set_file_caps to get_file_caps, since we are getting
the file capabilities, and setting the bprm caps to them.

Move the clearing of bprm caps into get_file_caps, and do it
only when we don't copy them from the capability xattr.

Hmm? But if we succeeded we still want to free dcaps if we
kmalloc()'d it.

If we didn't kmalloc it, dcaps==v1caps and it won't be freed.

I wasn't clear enough... Let me try again with different words.

If you look at your patch, you will see that the only use of the label
'clear_caps:' is as a jump target from a location in which rc=0. As
such, you will *not* clear the bprm->cap_* sets... This is the reverse
of what you intended to do.

You need to put the jump target 'inside' the 'if (rc) { <-here ... }'.

Cheers

Andrew

Oops! Good catch, thanks. New patch follows:

Fix location of 'clear_caps' label.
