Hello,<br><br>I have a program that I write that uses user-space libraries that talk<br>with kernel space, and I use an IDE for the development and debugging.<br><br>The program requires to run as super user, but I do not want to run<br>the whole IDE itself as super user, only gdb for this specific<br>project, but the IDE<br>does not allow me to do something like: /usr/bin/kdesu /usr/bin/gdb ...<br>I also do not wish to provide suid to root, and allow every one to use<br>gdb as root.<br><br>Beside executing gdb myself with sudo, how would you recommend me to<br>elevate user privileges for gdb on such case ?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Ido<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Linux-il mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il" href="mailto:Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il">Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il</a><br>http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il<br><br><br> </div> </div> </blockquote></div> </div></body></html>
