[PATCH] alloc_tag: Tighten file permissions on /proc/allocinfo

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

 



The /proc/allocinfo file exposes a tremendous about of information about
kernel build details, memory allocations (obviously), and potentially
even image layout (due to ordering). As this is intended to be consumed
by system owners (like /proc/slabinfo), use the same file permissions as
there: 0400.
