[PATCH 07/11] fs: Allow CAP_SYS_ADMIN in s_user_ns to freeze and thaw filesystems

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

 



From: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The user in control of a super block should be allowed to freeze
and thaw it. Relax the restrictions on the FIFREEZE and FITHAW
ioctls to require CAP_SYS_ADMIN in s_user_ns.
