From: Thomas Renninger Date: Thu, 26 May 2011 10:26:24 +0000 (+0200) Subject: ACPI: Split out custom_method functionality into an own driver X-Git-Tag: v3.0-rc1~12^2~1^2 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=526b4af47f44148c9d665e57723ed9f86634c6e3;p=pandora-kernel.git ACPI: Split out custom_method functionality into an own driver With /sys/kernel/debug/acpi/custom_method root can write to arbitrary memory and increase his priveleges, even if these are restricted. -> Make this an own debug .config option and warn about the security issue in the config description. -> Still keep acpi/debugfs.c which now only creates an empty /sys/kernel/debug/acpi directory. There might be other users of it later. Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger Acked-by: Rafael J. Wysocki Acked-by: rui.zhang@intel.com Signed-off-by: Len Brown --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
