V" , Vaibhav Jain , Dan Williams , Ira Weiny Errors-To: linuxppc-dev-bounces+linuxppc-dev=archiver.kernel.org@lists.ozlabs.org Sender: "Linuxppc-dev" The newly introduced 'perf_stats' attribute uses the default access mode of 0444 letting non-root users access performance stats of an nvdimm and potentially force the kernel into issuing large number of expensive HCALLs. Since the information exposed by this attribute cannot be cached hence its better to ward of access to this attribute from users who don't need to access these performance statistics. Hence this patch updates access mode of 'perf_stats' attribute to be only readable by root users.
