===============
Dealing with keys is fairly straightforward. Firstly, the kernel service
registers its type, then it searches for a key of that type. It should retain
the key as long as it has need of it, and then it should release it. For a
-filesystem or device file, a search would probably be performed during the
-open call, and the key released upon close. How to deal with conflicting keys
-due to two different users opening the same file is left to the filesystem
-author to solve.
-
-When accessing a key's payload data, key->lock should be at least read locked,
-or else the data may be changed by an update being performed from userspace
-whilst the driver or filesystem is trying to access it. If no update method is
-supplied, then the key's payload may be accessed without holding a lock as

+filesystem or device file, a search would probably be performed during the open

+two different users opening the same file is left to the filesystem author to
+solve.
+
+When accessing a key's payload contents, certain precautions must be taken to
+prevent access vs modification races. See the section "Notes on accessing
+payload contents" for more information.
(*) To search for a key, call:
void unregister_key_type(struct key_type *type);
+===================================
+NOTES ON ACCESSING PAYLOAD CONTENTS
+===================================
+
+The simplest payload is just a number in key->payload.value. In this case,
+there's no need to indulge in RCU or locking when accessing the payload.
+
+More complex payload contents must be allocated and a pointer to them set in
+key->payload.data. One of the following ways must be selected to access the
+data:
+
+ (1) Unmodifyable key type.
+
+ If the key type does not have a modify method, then the key's payload can
+ be accessed without any form of locking, provided that it's known to be
+ instantiated (uninstantiated keys cannot be "found").
+
+ (2) The key's semaphore.
+
+ The semaphore could be used to govern access to the payload and to control
+ the payload pointer. It must be write-locked for modifications and would
+ have to be read-locked for general access. The disadvantage of doing this
+ is that the accessor may be required to sleep.
+
+ (3) RCU.
+
+ RCU must be used when the semaphore isn't already held; if the semaphore
+ is held then the contents can't change under you unexpectedly as the
+ semaphore must still be used to serialise modifications to the key. The
+ key management code takes care of this for the key type.
+
+ However, this means using:
+
+ rcu_read_lock() ... rcu_dereference() ... rcu_read_unlock()
+
+ to read the pointer, and:
+
+ rcu_dereference() ... rcu_assign_pointer() ... call_rcu()
+
+ to set the pointer and dispose of the old contents after a grace period.
+ Note that only the key type should ever modify a key's payload.
+
+ Furthermore, an RCU controlled payload must hold a struct rcu_head for the
+ use of call_rcu() and, if the payload is of variable size, the length of
+ the payload. key->datalen cannot be relied upon to be consistent with the
+ payload just dereferenced if the key's semaphore is not held.
