It has been reported in #6372 that after upgrading the nvidia
proprietary driver from version 550.78 to 550.90.07, programs using
hardware acceleration fail unless paths in /sys/module/nvidia* are
accessible. Example:
$ firejail --noprofile prime-run /bin/glxdemo
[...]
X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 150 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_GLXCreateContext)
Value in failed request: 0x0
Serial number of failed request: 22
Current serial number in output stream: 23
[...]
Meanwhile, the AMD proprietary driver (AMDGPU Pro) seems to depend on
/sys/module/amdgpu for OpenCL (though it is unclear how to detect that
driver). See commit 95c8e284d ("Allow accessing /sys/module directory",
2018-05-08) and commit 9dd581d25 ("Allow AMD GPU usage by Blender",
2018-05-08) from PR #1932.
So whitelist /sys/module/nvidia* by default if the nvidia proprietary
driver is detected and no3d is not used.
Note: The driver check is copied from src/firejail/util.c (see #841).
To keep the current behavior (that is, block all modules), add
blacklist /sys/module to globals.local.
