[PATCH 02/16] staging: fwserial: fix TIOCSSERIAL permission check

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

 



Changing the port close-delay parameter is a privileged operation so
make sure to return -EPERM if a regular user tries to change it.

Fixes: 7355ba3445f2 ("staging: fwserial: Add TTY-over-Firewire serial driver")
