linux-toradex.git/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-kernel-fscaps, branch Rel3 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules kernel/ksysfs.c: expose file_caps_enabled in sysfs 2011-04-19T23:45:51+00:00 Ludwig Nussel ludwig.nussel@suse.de 2011-02-28T14:57:17+00:00 088ab0b4d855d68a0f0c16b72fb8e492a533aaa1 A kernel booted with no_file_caps allows to install fscaps on a binary but doesn't actually honor the fscaps when running the binary. Userspace currently has no sane way to determine whether installing fscaps actually has any effect. Since parsing /proc/cmdline is fragile this patch exposes the current setting (1 or 0) via /sys/kernel/fscaps Signed-off-by: Ludwig Nussel <ludwig.nussel@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
