The syslog hook was changed in the commit "capabilities/syslog: open code cap_syslog logic to fix build failure" (12b3052c3ee8). The argument @from_file was removed from the hook. This patch updates the documentation for the syslog hook accordingly. Signed-off-by: Denis Efremov <redacted> --- include/linux/lsm_hooks.h | 3 +-- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-)
