TRACEHOOK_REPORT_EXE(9) Kernel Internals TRACEHOOK_REPORT_EXE(9)

NAME

tracehook_report_exec - a successful exec was completed

SYNOPSIS

void tracehook_report_exec(struct linux_binfmt * fmt, struct linux_binprm * bprm, struct pt_regs * regs);

ARGUMENTS

fmt

struct linux_binfmt that performed the exec

bprm

struct linux_binprm containing exec details

regs

user-mode register state

DESCRIPTION

An exec just completed, we are shortly going to return to user mode. The freshly initialized register state can be seen and changed in regs. The name, file and other pointers in bprm are still on hand to be inspected, but will be freed as soon as this returns.

Called with no locks, but with some kernel resources held live and a reference on fmt->module.
