CVS commit: src/sys/kern

[David Young <dyoung%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Module Name:    src
Committed By:   dyoung
Date:           Tue Jun 13 22:56:46 UTC 2006

Modified Files:
        src/sys/kern: kern_auth.c

Log Message:
The UID_MAX limit is not enforced by syscalls such as setreuid(2),
so I remove the assertion uid >= 0 && uid <= UID_MAX.  This squashes
a bug where Quagga would panic my machine by passing a UID outside
the range [0, UID_MAX].

AFAICT, this restores the historical (pre-kauth) behavior.

It is likely that GIDs do not satisfy the assertion gid >= 0 &&
gid <= GID_MAX, so remove that, too.

Patch from elad.
