[PATCH 3/3] Add PR_SET_FORCE_EXECVE_NOSECURITY to turn execve calls into execve_nosecurity.
This flag is preserved across execve_nosecurity. It's obviously dangerous, so we only allow it if PR_RESTRICT_EXEC is set. Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto(a)mit.edu> --- fs/compat.c | 3 +++ fs/exec.c | 3 +++ include/linux/prctl.h | 5 +++++ include/linux/sched.h | 1 + ... 26 Mar 2010 10:22

hi, I reworked it based on your comments: - the function_graph tracer should have the same output as current version even with events enabled, unless I missed something again ;) - I gave up the idea of function_graph events, since it was unsuitable for outputing other events as comments "/* */" ... 26 Mar 2010 09:09
