Crate linux_personality [−] [src]

linux-personality

This crate is a type safe wrapper around Linux personality function.

Examples

This sets the personality.

extern crate linux_personality;
use linux_personality::personality;
use linux_personality::PER_LINUX;

let previous_personality = personality(PER_LINUX).unwrap();

This gets the personality.

extern crate linux_personality;
use linux_personality::get_personality;

let persona = get_personality().unwrap();

Constants

ADDR_COMPAT_LAYOUT	With this flag set, provide legacy virtual address space layout.
ADDR_LIMIT_32BIT	Limit the address space to 32 bits.
ADDR_LIMIT_3GB	With this flag set, use `0xC0000000` as the offset at which to search a virtual memory chunk on `mmap(2)`; otherwise use `0xFFFFE000`.
ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE	With this flag set, disable address-space-layout randomization.
FDPIC_FUNCPTRS	User-space function pointers to signal handlers point (on certain architectures) to descriptors.
MMAP_PAGE_ZERO	Map page 0 as read-only (to support binaries that depend on this SVr4 behavior).
PER_BSD	BSD. (No effects.)
PER_HPUX	Support for 32-bit HP/UX. This support was never complete, and was dropped so that since Linux 4.0, this value has no effect.
PER_IRIX32	IRIX 5 32-bit. Never fully functional; support dropped in Linux 2.6.27. Implies `STICKY_TIMEOUTS`.
PER_IRIX64	IRIX 6 64-bit. Implies `STICKY_TIMEOUTS`; otherwise no effects.
PER_IRIXN32	IRIX 6 new 32-bit. Implies `STICKY_TIMEOUTS`; otherwise no effects.
PER_ISCR4	Implies STICKY_TIMEOUTS; otherwise no effects.
PER_LINUX	Linux
PER_LINUX32	[To be documented.]
PER_LINUX32_3GB	Implies ADDR_LIMIT_3GB.
PER_LINUX_32BIT	Implies `ADDR_LIMIT_32BIT`.
PER_LINUX_FDPIC	Implies `FDPIC_FUNCPTRS`.
PER_MASK	[to be documented]
PER_OSF4	OSF/1 v4. On alpha, clear top 32 bits of iov_len in the user's buffer for compatibility with old versions of OSF/1 where iov_len was defined as. int.
PER_OSR5	Implies `STICKY_TIMEOUTS` and `WHOLE_SECONDS`; otherwise no effects.
PER_RISCOS	[To be documented.]
PER_SCOSVR3	Implies `STICKY_TIMEOUTS`, `WHOLE_SECONDS`, and `SHORT_INODE`; otherwise no effects.
PER_SOLARIS	Implies `STICKY_TIMEOUTS`; otherwise no effects.
PER_SUNOS	Implies `STICKY_TIMEOUTS`. Divert library and dynamic linker searches to `/usr/gnemul`. Buggy, largely unmaintained, and almost entirely unused; support was removed in Linux 2.6.26.
PER_SVR3	Implies `STICKY_TIMEOUTS` and `SHORT_INODE`; otherwise no effects.
PER_SVR4	Implies `STICKY_TIMEOUTS` and `MMAP_PAGE_ZERO`; otherwise no effects.
PER_UW7	Implies `STICKY_TIMEOUTS` and `MMAP_PAGE_ZERO`; otherwise no effects.
PER_WYSEV386	Implies `STICKY_TIMEOUTS` and `SHORT_INODE`; otherwise no effects.
PER_XENIX	Implies `STICKY_TIMEOUTS` and `SHORT_INODE`; otherwise no effects.
READ_IMPLIES_EXEC	With this flag set, `PROT_READ` implies `PROT_EXEC` for `mmap(2)`.
SHORT_INODE	No effects(?).
STICKY_TIMEOUTS	With this flag set, `select(2)`, `pselect(2)`, and `ppoll(2)` do not modify the returned timeout argument when interrupted by a signal handler.
UNAME26	Have uname(2) report a 2.6.40+ version number rather than a 3.x version number. Added as a stopgap measure to support broken applications that could not handle the kernel version- numbering switch from 2.6.x to 3.x.
WHOLE_SECONDS	No effects(?).

Functions

get_personality	This function only gets the current `persona`.
personality	Set the process domain execution model.
