platform/x86: dell-smbios: Add filtering support
When a userspace interface is introduced to dell-smbios filtering support will be used to make sure that userspace doesn't make calls deemed unsafe or that can cause the kernel drivers to get out of sync. A blacklist is provided for the following: - Items that are in use by other kernel drivers - Items that are deemed unsafe (diagnostics, write-once, etc) - Any items in the blacklist will be rejected. Following that a whitelist is provided as follows: - Each item has an associated capability. If a userspace interface accesses this item, that capability will be tested to filter the request. - If the process provides CAP_SYS_RAWIO the whitelist will be overridden. When an item is not in the blacklist, or whitelist and the process is run with insufficient capabilities the call will be rejected.
