Re: joydev devices are world readable

I posted an explanation on systemd-devel [1] this morning. Please note
that this is a policy-issue created in user-space. The kernel-side
cannot help you there. Furthermore, the kernel recommends using evdev
instead of joydev and friends. Therefore, I cannot see what you expect
from us.

just curious. If the joydev module is not recommended, why is it still
available and used?

If you want to get this solved, simply change the udev rules on your
system to prevent joydev devices from being world-readable.

Thanks
David

Thank for your explanations. I will try to modify or add udev rules and
see if I can solve this behavior.

Thanks,

floris
