Subject: [PATCH v5 0/2] allow blk-zoned ioctls without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
Date: Wed, 11 Aug 2021 11:05:17 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210811110505.29649-1-Niklas.Cassel@wdc.com> (raw)

From: Niklas Cassel <niklas.cassel@wdc.com>

Allow the following blk-zoned ioctls: BLKREPORTZONE, BLKRESETZONE,
BLKOPENZONE, BLKCLOSEZONE, and BLKFINISHZONE to be performed without
CAP_SYS_ADMIN.

Neither read() nor write() requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN, and considering
the close relationship between read()/write() and these ioctls, there
is no reason to require CAP_SYS_ADMIN for these ioctls either.

Changes since v4:
-Picked up additional Reviewed-by tags.
-Corrected Damien's email in patch 2/2.

Changes since v3:
-Picked up additional Reviewed-by tags.

Changes since v2:
-Dropped the FMODE_READ check from patch 2/2.

Changes since v1:
-Picked up tags from Damien.
-Added fixes tags.
