Pull execve fix from Eric Biederman:
"While working on my exec cleanups I found a bug in exec that winds up
miscomputing the ambient credentials during exec. Andy appears to have
to been confused as to why credentials are computed for both the
script and the interpreter
From the original patch description:
[3] Linux very confusingly processes both the script and the
interpreter if applicable, for reasons that elude me. The results
from thinking about a script's file capabilities and/or setuid
bits are mostly discarded.
The only value in struct cred that gets changed in cap_bprm_set_creds
that I could find that might persist between the script and the
interpreter was cap_ambient. Which is fixed with this trivial change"
* 'exec-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:
exec: Always set cap_ambient in cap_bprm_set_creds

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.
