[PATCH V33 11/30] uswsusp: Disable when the kernel is locked down

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

 



From: Matthew Garrett <mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

uswsusp allows a user process to dump and then restore kernel state, which
makes it possible to modify the running kernel.  Disable this if the kernel
is locked down.
