Subject: [GIT PULL] Audit patches for v6.1
Date: Mon, 3 Oct 2022 15:19:57 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAHC9VhTEHLd-PVLArOH20UGaB21JJzz5nT54VFegF23631QSxA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi Linus,

Six audit patches for v6.1, most are pretty trivial, but a quick list
of the highlights are below:

* Only free the audit proctitle information on task exit.  This allows
us to cache the information and improve performance slightly.

* Use the time_after() macro to do time comparisons instead of doing
it directly and potentially causing ourselves problems when the timer
wraps.

* Convert an audit_context state comparison from a relative enum
comparison, e.g. (x < y), to a not-equal comparison to ensure that we
are not caught out at some unknown point in the future by an enum
shuffle.

* A handful of small cleanups such as tidying up comments and removing
unused declarations.

-Paul
