From cabcac0b296cd9683bc168d60839729b720dc2b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Graf Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2006 12:46:33 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [BONDING]: Remove CAP_NET_ADMIN requirement for INFOQUERY ioctl This information is already available via /proc/net/bonding/* therefore it doesn't make sense to require CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges.
