H A D | powernv_defconfig | diff 8b856a0942a1b4d832966985fcdf1a455eb6ab8c Thu May 09 07:11:19 CEST 2019 Andrew Donnellan <ajd@linux.ibm.com> powerpc/configs: Disable SCOM_DEBUGFS in powernv_defconfig
SCOM_DEBUGFS is really not needed for anything other than low-level hardware debugging.
mpe: It also introduces a large and poorly documented/understood attack surface. Although the interface is only available to root, the kernel still aspires to restrict root to accessing hardware through well defined interfaces, which this is not.
opal-prd uses its own interface (/dev/prd) for SCOM access, so it doesn't need SCOM_DEBUGFS.
At some point in the future we'll introduce a debug config fragment where this can go instead.
