Users may have explicitly configured their debugfs permissions; we shouldn't overwrite those just because a second mount appeared. Only clobber if the options were provided at mount time. Existing behavior: ## Pre-existing status: debugfs is 0755. # chmod 755 /sys/kernel/debug/ # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/debug/ drwxr-xr-x ## New mount sets kernel-default permissions: # mount -t debugfs none /mnt/foo # stat -c '%A' /mnt/foo drwx------ ## Unexpected: the original mount changed permissions: # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/debug drwx------ New behavior: ## Pre-existing status: debugfs is 0755. # chmod 755 /sys/kernel/debug/ # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/debug/ drwxr-xr-x ## New mount inherits existing permissions: # mount -t debugfs none /mnt/foo # stat -c '%A' /mnt/foo drwxr-xr-x ## Expected: old mount is unchanged: # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/debug drwxr-xr-x Full test cases are being submitted to LTP.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
