+Subject: KEYS: Fix keyring ref leak in join_session_keyring()
+
+If a thread is asked to join as a session keyring the keyring that's already
+set as its session, we leak a keyring reference.
+
+This can be tested with the following program:
+
+       #include <stddef.h>
+       #include <stdio.h>
+       #include <sys/types.h>
+       #include <keyutils.h>
+
+       int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
+       {
+               int i = 0;
+               key_serial_t serial;
+
+               serial = keyctl(KEYCTL_JOIN_SESSION_KEYRING,
+                               "leaked-keyring");
+               if (serial < 0) {
+                       perror("keyctl");
+                       return -1;
+               }
+
+               if (keyctl(KEYCTL_SETPERM, serial,
+                          KEY_POS_ALL | KEY_USR_ALL) < 0) {
+                       perror("keyctl");
+                       return -1;
+               }
+
+               for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
+                       serial = keyctl(KEYCTL_JOIN_SESSION_KEYRING,
+                                       "leaked-keyring");
+                       if (serial < 0) {
+                               perror("keyctl");
+                               return -1;
+                       }
+               }
+
+               return 0;
+       }
+
+If, after the program has run, there something like the following line in
+/proc/keys:
+
+3f3d898f I--Q---   100 perm 3f3f0000     0     0 keyring   leaked-keyring: empty
+
+with a usage count of 100 * the number of times the program has been run,
+then the kernel is malfunctioning.  If leaked-keyring has zero usages or
+has been garbage collected, then the problem is fixed.
