This reverts commit 3ce2cd63e8ee037644db0cbea65e6c40ab6cc178 which is commit aa838896d87af561a33ecefea1caa4c15a68bc47 upstream. Ben writes: When I looked into the referenced security issue, it seemed to only be exploitable through wakelock names, and in the upstream kernel only after commit c8377adfa781 "PM / wakeup: Show wakeup sources stats in sysfs" (first included in 5.4). So I would be interested to know if and why a fix was needed for 4.19. More importantly, this backported version uniformly converts to sysfs_emit(), but there are 3 places sysfs_emit_at() must be used instead: Reported-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/95831df76c41a53bc3e1ac8ece64915dd63763a1.camel@decadent.org.uk Cc: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Cc: Brennan Lamoreaux <blamoreaux@vmware.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
