For my package found in OBS in benchmark:kdiskmark I would like a whitelisting for the following rpmlint error: [ 72s] kdiskmark.x86_64: I: polkit-cant-acquire-privilege org.jonmagon.kdiskmark.dropcache (??:no:auth_admin_keep) [ 72s] kdiskmark.x86_64: E: polkit-untracked-privilege (Badness: 10000) org.jonmagon.kdiskmark.dropcache (??:no:auth_admin_keep) [ 72s] kdiskmark.x86_64: E: suse-dbus-unauthorized-service (Badness: 10000) /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.jonmagon.kdiskmark.service [ 72s] kdiskmark.x86_64: E: suse-dbus-unauthorized-service (Badness: 10000) /usr/share/dbus-1/system.d/org.jonmagon.kdiskmark.conf The newer version uses helper via K5Auth to write to /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches. This action drops pagecache and is safe because dirty pages are not destroyed, but this resolves situations when the kernel ignores O_DIRECT and then the app reports unreal high performance.
