Yes, the whole thing is making me grumpy (more than my default state). The more I think about it, the more I don't like the prctl approach either... I more than dislike flags2... I hate it. but no prctl, no cgroups, no bpf.. what is left? A new policy groups thing? No, not that either, please. To state the obvious, none of this is transparent. Regards, Liam
