Subject: [PATCH] audit/accounting: tty locking
X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~33036
X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=eb84a20e9e6b98dcb33023ad22241d79107a08a7;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git

[PATCH] audit/accounting: tty locking

Add tty locking around the audit and accounting code.

The whole current->signal-> locking is all deeply strange but it's for
someone else to sort out.  Add rather than replace the lock for acct.c
