The purpose if this ioctl is to allow a user of privcmd to restrict its operation such that it will no longer service arbitrary hypercalls via IOCTL_PRIVCMD_HYPERCALL, and will check for a matching domid when servicing IOCTL_PRIVCMD_DM_OP or IOCTL_PRIVCMD_MMAP*. The aim of this is to limit the attack surface for a compromised device model. Signed-off-by: Paul Durrant <paul.durrant@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@oracle.com>
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.
