For security reasons, we would like to monitor and track when the Thunderbolt devices are authorized and deauthorized (i.e. when the Thunderbolt sysfs "authorized" attribute changes). Currently the userspace gets a udev change notification when there is a change, but the state may have changed (again) by the time we look at the authorized attribute in sysfs. So an authorization event may go unnoticed. Thus make it easier by informing the actual change (new value of authorized attribute) in the udev change notification. The change is included as a key value "authorized=<val>" where <val> is the new value of sysfs attribute "authorized", and is described at Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-thunderbolt under /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/.../authorized.

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.
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.
