[PATCH 03/11] PCI: pci_stub: Suppress kernel DMA ownership auto-claiming

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

 



pci_stub allows the admin to block driver binding on a device and make
it permanently shared with userspace. Since pci_stub does not do DMA,
it is safe. However the admin must understand that using pci_stub allows
userspace to attack whatever device it was bound to.
