Linux kernel modifications for the Kernel Hacking exam
ea9a46e1c4
There were a number of handwaving complaints that one could "possibly" use inode numbers and extent maps to fingerprint a filesystem hosting multiple containers and somehow use the information to guess at the contents of other containers and attack them. Despite the total lack of any demonstration that this is actually possible, it's easier to restrict access now and broaden it later, so use the rmapbt fsmap backends only if the caller has CAP_SYS_ADMIN. Unprivileged users will just have to make do with only getting the free space and static metadata placement information. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
