It is way in time to have it in init :-) > I assume init then has to link against libcap or something. > Would it add a lot of size to the binary ? If you have to link libcap, probably :-( OTOH, maybe you can have all used-only-once code in a different page than the commonly used code, so that it can be swapped out easily... Anyway, for init, you might do a much simpler "initcaps=0xf00" that does not need libcap, if size is a problem. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
