Subject[RESEND PATCH v5 3.19-rc2 8/8] kdb: Allow access to sensitive commands to be restricted by default
Date
Currently kiosk mode must be explicitly requested by the bootloader or
userspace. It is convenient to be able to change the default value in a
similar manner to CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_DEFAULT_MASK.

+ Alternatively the following bitmask applies:
+
+ 0x0002 - allow arbitrary reads from memory and symbol lookup
+ 0x0004 - allow arbitrary writes to memory
+ 0x0008 - allow current register state to be inspected
+ 0x0010 - allow current register state to be modified
+ 0x0020 - allow passive inspection (backtrace, process list, lsmod)
+ 0x0040 - allow flow control management (breakpoint, single step)
+ 0x0080 - enable signalling of processes
+ 0x0100 - allow machine to be rebooted
+
+ The config option merely sets the default at boot time. Both
+ issuing 'echo X > /sys/module/kdb/parameters/cmd_enable' or
+ setting with kdb.cmd_enable=X kernel command line option will
+ override the default settings.
