Martin v. Löwis <mar...@v.loewis.de> added the comment: Please don't provide a wrapper around ptrctrl. Instead, expose prctl as is (similar to how ioctl and fcntl get wrapped). It's ok to make some convenience adjustments (e.g. allowing fewer parameters than the actual call), and it's also ok to filter by option (for type safety), and be lazy by not implementing all controls. However, renaming the system call is not good, IMO.
