[PATCH 08/23] tracehook: tracehook_tracer_task

Roland McGrath
2008-07-17T07:31:08Z

This adds the tracehook_tracer_task() hook to consolidate all forms of
"Who is using ptrace on me?" logic. This is used for "TracerPid:" in
/proc and for permission checks. We also clean up the selinux code
the called an identical accessor.
