From 447016e9681965fda8dcd9e4fd3c55308a6fd166 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dominik Brodowski Date: Sun, 11 Mar 2018 11:34:46 +0100 Subject: fs: add ksys_chdir() helper; remove in-kernel calls to sys_chdir() Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the sys_chdir() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the same calling convention as sys_chdir(). This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls. On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined.
