From 3022c6a1b4b76c40aab9dcdf5142c501f3d3ae8c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Williams Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2020 16:51:03 -0700 Subject: driver-core: Introduce DEVICE_ATTR_ADMIN_{RO,RW} A common pattern for using plain DEVICE_ATTR() instead of DEVICE_ATTR_RO() and DEVICE_ATTR_RW() is for attributes that want to limit read to only root. I.e. many users of DEVICE_ATTR() are specifying 0400 or 0600 for permissions. Given the expectation that CAP_SYS_ADMIN is needed to access these sensitive attributes and an explicit helper with the _ADMIN_ identifier for DEVICE_ATTR_ADMIN_{RO,RW}. Cc: "Rafael J.
