H A D | base.c | 6d76fa58 Sat Jul 15 14:26:45 CDT 2006 Linus Torvalds <torvalds@evo.osdl.org> Don't allow chmod() on the /proc/<pid>/ files
This just turns off chmod() on the /proc/<pid>/ files, since there is no good reason to allow it, and had we disallowed it originally, the nasty /proc race exploit wouldn't have been possible.
The other patches already fixed the problem chmod() could cause, so this is really just some final mop-up..
This particular version is based off a patch by Eugene and Marcel which had much better naming than my original equivalent one.
