Access to the files in /sys/firmware/efi/esrt has been restricted to CAP_SYS_ADMIN since support for ESRT was added, but this seems overly restrictive given that the files are read-only and just provide information about UEFI firmware updates. Remove the CAP_SYS_ADMIN restriction so that a non-root process can read the files, provided a suitably-privileged process changes the file ownership first. The files are still read-only and still owned by root by default. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bishop <nicholasbishop@google.com> Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.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.
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.
