I don't think ptrace is the right interface for this. Just changed the get_thread_area/set_thread_area to take a new first pid_t argument. Of course you might have to check privilegues if the first argument is non-null (i.e. not yourself). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
