Raw Normal View History

Some applications, like gdb, are able to ptrace both children or other
completely unrelated tasks. We would like to be able to discern these two
things and to be able to allow gdb to ptrace it's children, but not to be
able to ptrace unrelated tasks for security reasons.
Upstream is a bit weary of this patch as it may be incomplete. They are
not fundamentally opposed to the patch, I was just ask to see if I could
flush out any needed refinement in Fedora where we already had the
problem. We may find that we need to emulate the YAMA non-child
registration module in order to completely deal with 'normal' ptrace on
a system. At the moment however, this patch will at least let us get
gdb working for many users in Fedora (See fedora-devel-list for a
discussion of the current issues people are complaining about in F17
without this)
