X-Debbugs-Cc: nik...@ytvwld.de
Dear Maintainer,
#704750 in 2013 requested Yama – a kernel feature that restricts PTRACE_ATTACH
to parent processes and root (by default, it can be configured).
#712740 a few months later requested it to be disabled by default because it
prevents some debugging operations.
This is done via the yama-disable-by-default.patch.
With this bug I want to request dropping this patch. Yama is a security
feature: without it any process in a user session can to attach to (almost) any
other one run by the same user.
Yes, it makes debugging a bit harder, but
a) most users don't debug stuff
b) child processes are unaffected (so gdb myprog still works)
c) it can be easily disabled with a sysctl
d) you could run your debugger as root instead (or with CAP_SYS_PTRACE)
As an aside: Ubuntu had this enabled for years now (10.10, I think).
(Though they also patch e.g. gdb to produce better error messages, see ptrace-
error-verbosity.patch.)
