Ubuntu has added prctl(PR_SET_PTRACER, debugger_pid, 0, 0, 0); as the way to declare PTRACE relationships for crash handlers (or wardens). For an example, see how kdelibs was patched:
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/51487035/kde4libs_4%3A4.4.90-0ubuntu2_4%3A4.4....
It should be possible for a process to specify which process families are allowed to PTRACE it.
Did PR_SET_PTRACER actually make it into the mainline kernel then? 0x59616d61 / "Yama" certainly looks magic. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
