Subject: [PATCH 3/8] hw-breakpoints: Tag ptrace breakpoint as exclude_kernel
Date: Sat, 1 May 2010 04:53:50 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1272682436-10682-4-git-send-regression-fweisbec@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1272682436-10682-1-git-send-regression-fweisbec@gmail.com>
Tag ptrace breakpoints with the exclude_kernel attribute set. This
will make it easier to set generic policies on breakpoints, when it
comes to ensure nobody unpriviliged try to breakpoint on the kernel.
