Subject: [PATCH] sysfs: change permissions for /sys from 0755 to 0555
Date: Tue, 17 Jan 2012 12:17:22 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <878vl6frql.fsf@vps2.branbackup.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120105001700.GA26711@kroah.com> (Greg KH's message of "Wed, 4 Jan 2012 16:17:00 -0800")

There is a misleading difference between /proc and /sys permissions, /proc is 0555 and /sys is 0755. But
as it is impossible to create or unlink something in /sys it would be nice to have same permissions.
