From 91f9d330cc14932084c37751997213cb0e7ea882 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jani Nikula Date: Wed, 27 Aug 2014 06:22:23 +0930 Subject: module: make it possible to have unsafe, tainting module params Add flags field to struct kernel_params, and add the first flag: unsafe parameter. Modifying a kernel parameter with the unsafe flag set, either via the kernel command line or sysfs, will issue a warning and taint the kernel.
