I am on 2.6.13-rc3-git5 and I do not see such behavior: 08:16 spectre:/proc/21345 # chown 1337 smaps 08:16 spectre:/proc/21345 # l -n smaps -r--r--r-- 1 25121 0 0 Aug 3 08:16 smaps 08:16 spectre:/proc/21345 # >The patch does also trigger an EPERM when someone tries >to chown/chgrp an entry (which is currently silently ignored). That's true. Though, chmod /proc/21345 correctly yielded EPERM. >Please send comments, corrections and suggestions.
