+Subject: KEYS: Fix crash when attempt to garbage collect an uninstantiated keyring
+Origin: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/kernel.git/plain/0001-KEYS-Fix-crash-when-attempt-to-garbage-collect-an-un.patch?id=d76d5fe34b5c151ad83761160998b1075729b541
+
+ The following sequence of commands:
+
+ i=`keyctl add user a a @s`
+ keyctl request2 keyring foo bar @t
+ keyctl unlink $i @s
+
+ tries to invoke an upcall to instantiate a keyring if one doesn't already
+ exist by that name within the user's keyring set. However, if the upcall
+ fails, the code sets keyring->type_data.reject_error to -ENOKEY or some
+ other error code. When the key is garbage collected, the key destroy
+ function is called unconditionally and keyring_destroy() uses list_empty()
+ on keyring->type_data.link - which is in a union with reject_error.
+ Subsequently, the kernel tries to unlink the keyring from the keyring names
+ list - which oopses like this:
+

+ Note the value in RAX. This is a 32-bit representation of -ENOKEY.
