| ricotz | hi, dmesg requires root permissions now? (running 5.7.0-16.17-generic) | 09:32 |
|---|---|---|
| sixwheeledbeast | you can set that in sysctl but no idea if that is default or related | 09:52 |
| sixwheeledbeast | "sysctl kernel.dmesg_restrict" | 09:53 |
| sixwheeledbeast | if 0 it's not that | 09:54 |
| ricotz | sixwheeledbeast, could be an intended upstream change | 09:54 |
| ricotz | ppisati, hi, did you notice this? ^ | 09:54 |
| sixwheeledbeast | maybe? is it sysctl? I am not running 5.7 | 09:55 |
| ricotz | kernel.dmesg_restrict = 1 | 09:56 |
| sixwheeledbeast | hmm | 09:57 |
| dsmythies | That dmesg now needs root persmissions appeared between mainline kernel 5.8-rc1 and 5.8-rc4 (I missed -rc2 and -rc3). | 12:53 |
| dsmythies | I do no tunserstand the change, becuase the sameinformation is available in /var/log/kern.log. | 12:55 |
| hggdh | dsmythies: please see https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2020-June/041063.html& LP bug | 13:06 |
| dsmythies | hggdh: Thank you. I had not realized it was a kernel configuration change. I mainly work upstream in the linux-pm group, but steal the Ubuntu kernel configuration from the mainline kernels. In general I check for config differences, but missed this one. | 13:25 |
