From 6760856791c6e527da678021ee6a67896549d4da Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Mon, 2 Oct 2006 02:18:26 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] introduce kernel_execve The use of execve() in the kernel is dubious, since it relies on the __KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ mechanism that stores the result in a global errno variable. As a first step of getting rid of this, change all users to a global kernel_execve function that returns a proper error code. This function is a terrible hack, and a later patch removes it again after the kernel syscalls are gone.
