[...] +config SECURITY_PROC_MEM_RESTRICT_WRITESInstead of a build-time CONFIG, I'd prefer a boot-time config (or a sysctl, but that's be harder given the perms). That this is selectable by distro users, etc, and they don't need to rebuild their kernel to benefit from it.Ack, I'll implement a cmdline arg in v2.
Any objections to doing both? Have a CONFIG option for a default and a cmdline to override it? This way if a distro wants to restrict writes by default then don't need to jam more stuff into the kernel command line. -Doug
