[PATCH v2 0/2] unprivileged fanotify listener

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

 



Jan,

These patches try to implement a minimal set and least controversial
functionality that we can allow for unprivileged users as a starting
point.

The patches were tested on top of v5.12-rc1 and the fanotify_merge
patches using the unprivileged listener LTP tests written by Matthew
and another LTP tests I wrote to test the sysfs tunable limits [1].

Thanks,
Amir.

Changes since v1:
- Dropped marks per group limit in favor of max per user
- Rename sysfs files from 'listener' to 'group' terminology
- Dropped internal group flag FANOTIFY_UNPRIV
- Limit unprivileged listener to FAN_REPORT_FID family
- Report event->pid depending on reader capabilities
