From e2aaa9f423367ee03755d632555c242629a08d00 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dominik Brodowski Date: Fri, 16 Mar 2018 12:36:06 +0100 Subject: kernel: add ksys_setsid() helper; remove in-kernel call to sys_setsid() Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel call to the sys_setsid() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the same calling convention as sys_setsid(). This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls. On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined.
