[PATCH v11 0/7] usb: interface authorization

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

 



This patch introduces an interface authorization for USB devices.
The kernel supports a device authorization because of wireless USB.

But the new interface authorization allows to authorize or deauthorize
individual interfaces instead authorization or deauthorize a whole device.

Therefore the authorized attribute is introduced for each interface.

Each patch depends on all patches with a lesser number.
