KEY_FLAG_KEEP should only be applied to a key if the keyring it is being linked into has KEY_FLAG_KEEP set. To this end, partially revert the following patch: commit 1d6d167c Author: Mimi Zohar <zohar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Date: Thu Jan 7 07:46:36 2016 -0500 KEYS: refcount bug fix to undo the change that made it unconditional (Mimi got it right the first time). Without undoing this change, it becomes impossible to delete, revoke or invalidate keys added to keyrings through __key_instantiate_and_link() where the keyring has itself been linked to. To test this, run the following command sequence: keyctl newring foo @s keyctl add user a a %:foo keyctl unlink %user:a %:foo keyctl clear %:foo With the commit mentioned above the third and fourth commands fail with EPERM when they should succeed.
