[PATCH] proc: show personality via /proc/pid/personality
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Make process personality flags visible in /proc.  Since a process's
personality is potentially sensitive (e.g. READ_IMPLIES_EXEC), make this
file only readable by the process owner.
