Petr, can you add the following paragraph below the last paragraph in the "Address Groups" section? It should probably go upstream as well.
Some Linux kernel subsystems may additionally allow other users to send and/or receive messages. As of Linux 3.0, the NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT, NETLINK_GENERIC, NETLINK_ROUTE, and NETLINK_SELINUX groups allow other users to receive messages. No groups allow other users to send messages.
I assume this is to be written into cap 7 netlink isn't it? But what about man 7 capabilities which suggests me that CAP_NET_RAW is necessary for creating a raw socket? Netlink seems to break that rule, too. BTW, thank you for looking at this bugreport! -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
