If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Linus Torvalds [ Upstream commit 83f1b4ba917db5dc5a061a44b3403ddb6e783494 ] Commit 257b5358b32f ("scm: Capture the full credentials of the scm sender") changed the credentials passing code to pass in the effective uid/gid instead of the real uid/gid. Obviously this doesn't matter most of the time (since normally they are the same), but it results in differences for suid binaries when the wrong uid/gid ends up being used. This just undoes that (presumably unintentional) part of the commit. Reported-by: Andy Lutomirski Cc: Eric W. Biederman Cc: Serge E. Hallyn Cc: David S.
