Date: Mon, 18 Apr 2005 20:53:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1113850439.17341.83.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)


[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 352 bytes --]

This patch changes the permissions of the procfs entry kallsyms, thus,
non-root users are restricted from accessing it.

It's also available at:
