Subject: [9fans] p9p/linux factotum port
Date: Tue,  6 May 2008 21:49:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080506194935.GA2013@nibiru.local> (raw)


Hi folks,

is anyone already working on an factotum port to p9p or native Linux ?

I've just wrote a patch to Linux kernel which allows changing
another process' privileges (uid, etc). The /dev/caphash and
/dev/capuse devices (IMHO) can be simulated from userspace.
