  "message": "keys: the request_key() syscall should link an existing key to the dest keyring\n\nThe request_key() system call and request_key_and_link() should make a\nlink from an existing key to the destination keyring (if supplied), not\njust from a new key to the destination keyring.\n\nThis can be tested by:\n\n\tring\u003d`keyctl newring fred @s`\n\tkeyctl request2 user debug:a a\n\tkeyctl request user debug:a $ring\n\tkeyctl list $ring\n\nIf it says:\n\n\tkeyring is empty\n\nthen it didn\u0027t work.  If it shows something like:\n\n\t1 key in keyring:\n\t1070462727: --alswrv     0     0 user: debug:a\n\nthen it did.\n\nrequest_key() system call is meant to recursively search all your keyrings for\nthe key you desire, and, optionally, if it doesn\u0027t exist, call out to userspace\nto create one for you.\n\nIf request_key() finds or creates a key, it should, optionally, create a link\nto that key from the destination keyring specified.\n\nTherefore, if, after a successful call to request_key() with a desination\nkeyring specified, you see the destination keyring empty, the code didn\u0027t work\ncorrectly.\n\nIf you see the found key in the keyring, then it did - which is what the patch\nis required for.\n\nSigned-off-by: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: James Morris \u003cjmorris@namei.org\u003e\nCc: \u003cstable@kernel.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n",
