[PATCH 14/16] tty: mxser: fix TIOCSSERIAL permission check

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Changing the port type and closing_wait parameter are privileged
operations so make sure to return -EPERM if a regular user tries to
change them.

Note that the closing_wait parameter would not actually have been
changed but the return value did not indicate that.
