fs: define a string representation of the kernel_read_file_id enumeration
Subsystems (2)
PATCH v2 1/1 fs: define a string representation of the kernel_read_file_id enumeration
A string representation of the kernel_read_file_id enumeration is needed for displaying messages (eg. pr_info, auditing) that can be used by multiple LSMs and the integrity subsystem. To simplify keeping the list of strings up to date with the enumeration, this patch defines two new preprocessing macros named __fid_enumify and __fid_stringify to create the enumeration and an array of strings. kernel_read_file_id_str() returns a string based on the enumeration.
Changelog:
- redefined the macros and simplified their usage - James Bottomley

This works for me! I'll add it to my LSM series to replace my implementation of kernel_read_file_id_str.
Thanks!
