Linus Torvalds 2d3409ebc8 Merge branch 'ucount-rlimit-fixes-for-v5.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull ucounts fixes from Eric Biederman:
 "Michal Koutný recently found some bugs in the enforcement of
  RLIMIT_NPROC in the recent ucount rlimit implementation.

  In this set of patches I have developed a very conservative approach
  changing only what is necessary to fix the bugs that I can see
  clearly. Cleanups and anything that is making the code more consistent
  can follow after we have the code working as it has historically.

  The problem is not so much inconsistencies (although those exist) but
  that it is very difficult to figure out what the code should be doing
  in the case of RLIMIT_NPROC.

  All other rlimits are only enforced where the resource is acquired
  (allocated). RLIMIT_NPROC by necessity needs to be enforced in an
  additional location, and our current implementation stumbled it's way
  into that implementation"

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
