From 4cb0e11b15d2badad455fcd538af0cccf05dc012 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hidehiro Kawai Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2009 14:42:47 -0800 Subject: coredump_filter: permit changing of the default filter Introduce a new kernel parameter `coredump_filter'. Setting a value to this parameter causes the default bitmask of coredump_filter to be changed. It is useful for users to change coredump_filter settings for the whole system at boot time. Without this parameter, users have to change coredump_filter settings for each /proc// in an initializing script.
