RE: [PATCH v4 02/11] fs: Move __scm_install_fd() to __fd_install_received()

From: Kees Cook

Sent: 16 June 2020 04:25

In preparation for users of the "install a received file" logic outside of net/ (pidfd and seccomp), relocate and rename __scm_install_fd() from net/core/scm.c to __fd_install_received() in fs/file.c, and provide a wrapper named fd_install_received_user(), as future patches will change the interface to __fd_install_received().

Any reason for the leading __ ??
