Message-ID: <20060301170330.GR26440@master.mivlgu.local> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="G6ArjEZjY3m60389" Content-Disposition: inline Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 1591 Lines: 48 --G6ArjEZjY3m60389 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello! Apparently the patch to add kernel.suid_dumpable sysctl: http://kernel.org/git/?p=3Dlinux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=3Dcomm= itdiff;h=3Dd6e711448137ca3301512cec41a2c2ce852b3d0a was applied wrongly - the sysctl was added under "fs" instead of "kernel". So currently it is fs.suid_dumpable instead of kernel.suid_dumpable, but the docs (Documentation/sysctl/kernel.txt) and include/linux/sysctl.h (KERN_SETUID_DUMPABLE) say that it should be under "kernel". Which way this should be fixed - should the sysctl definition be moved from fs_table to kern_table (thus moving it from fs.suid_dumpable to kernel.suid_dumpable, as docs say), or should docs be fixed to reflect the current location of sysctl (and include/linux/sysctl would need to be fixed too)? I have filed this as http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D6145 to make sure it is not forgotten completely. --=20 Sergey Vlasov --G6ArjEZjY3m60389 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEBdPiW82GfkQfsqIRAm+KAKCCM3aaTXDqjT0DDh1ZbSRvkuuscACfc7Lg bosDIYZ6JDDwtC7h1QQ+ncs= =dc86 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --G6ArjEZjY3m60389-- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
