Subject: [PATCH 6.1 281/325] af_unix: Kconfig: make CONFIG_UNIX bool
Date: Mon, 2 Jun 2025 15:49:17 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250602134331.179674198@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250602134319.723650984@linuxfoundation.org>
6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Alexander Mikhalitsyn <aleksandr.mikhalitsyn@canonical.com>
commit 97154bcf4d1b7cabefec8a72cff5fbb91d5afb7b upstream.
Let's make CONFIG_UNIX a bool instead of a tristate.
We've decided to do that during discussion about SCM_PIDFD patchset [1].
