Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] linux-user: added fake open() for /proc/self/cmdline
Date: Tue, 17 Jun 2014 05:16:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1402975019-19503-1-git-send-email-lists@fixnum.org> (raw)



A piece of software I use depends on /proc/self/cmdline to determine the command with which it was invoked.
When using linux-user, that file would read:

	$ hd /proc/self/cmdline 
	00000000  2f 75 73 72 2f 62 69 6e  2f 71 65 6d 75 2d 61 72  |/usr/bin/qemu-ar|
	00000010  6d 2d 73 74 61 74 69 63  00 2f 75 73 72 2f 62 69  |m-static./usr/bi|
	00000020  6e 2f 68 64 00 2f 70 72  6f 63 2f 73 65 6c 66 2f  |n/hd./proc/self/|
	00000030  63 6d 64 6c 69 6e 65 00                           |cmdline.|

With this patch, the first word is omitted from the process's own cmdline entry, removing the emulator path from the file:

	$ hd /proc/self/cmdline 
	00000000  2f 75 73 72 2f 62 69 6e  2f 68 64 00 2f 70 72 6f  |/usr/bin/hd./pro|
	00000010  63 2f 73 65 6c 66 2f 63  6d 64 6c 69 6e 65 00     |c/self/cmdline.|
	0000001f

Kind regards,

Wim
