Subject: [PATCH] dl2k: Tighten ioctl permissions
Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2012 15:33:43 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F985197.1060607@suse.com> (raw)
dl2k's rio_ioctl function defines several ioctls that involve
operations that should be denied to regular users.
SIOCDEVPRIVATE + 2 is a renumbered SIOCSMIIREG.
SIOCDEVPRIVATE + 5 calls netif_stop_queue.
SIOCDEVPRIVATE + 6 calls netif_wake_queue.
