  • 526b4af47   ACPI: Split out custom_method functionality into an own driver ... Browse Code ยป

    With /sys/kernel/debug/acpi/custom_method root can write
    to arbitrary memory and increase his priveleges, even if
    these are restricted.

    -> Make this an own debug .config option and warn about the
    security issue in the config description.

    -> Still keep acpi/debugfs.c which now only creates an empty
    /sys/kernel/debug/acpi directory. There might be other
    users of it later.
