ioctl32_unregister_conversion & modules
Hi!
...what is the problem?
It seems that function pointers into modules do not need any special treatmeant [I *know* there was talk about this on l-k; but I can't find anything in Documentation/]:
if (!capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN))
return -EACCES;
if (disk->fops->ioctl) {
ret = disk->fops->ioctl(inode, file, cmd, arg);
if (ret != -EINVAL)
return ret;
}So... what's the problem with {un}register_ioctl32_conversion being called from module_init/module_exit? Drivers in the tree do it already...
