[PATCH 48/91] carminefb: Fix module parameters permissions

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Sun Feb 05 2012 - 17:38:02 EST


2.6.27-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

commit c84c14224bbca6ec60d5851fcc87be0e34df2f44 upstream.

The third parameter of module_param is supposed to be an octal value.
The missing leading "0" causes the following:

$ ls -l /sys/module/carminefb/parameters/
total 0
-rw-rwxr-- 1 root root 4096 Jul 8 08:55 fb_displays
-rw-rwxr-- 1 root root 4096 Jul 8 08:55 fb_mode
-rw-rwxr-- 1 root root 4096 Jul 8 08:55 fb_mode_str

After fixing the perm parameter, we get the expected:

$ ls -l /sys/module/carminefb/parameters/
total 0
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Jul 8 08:56 fb_displays
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Jul 8 08:56 fb_mode
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Jul 8 08:56 fb_mode_str
