AFAICT nobody was in favour of your suggestion to remove DRM_AUTH from
the handle to/from fd ioclts.
Thus this seems like the second best option.

Well just keep it. As I said please don't change anything here.

Dropping DRM_AUTH from the driver IOCTLs was sufficient to work around the problems at hand far as I know.

And stopping those two at least prevents userspace to abuse this even more.

On the other hand I haven't seen any NAK on dropping DRM_AUTH from them.

Christian.



Third route that I see is doing driver_name == "amdgpu" || driver_name
== "radeon" in core.
If you have alternative solution I'm all ears.
