I am trying to only use a static /dev. I have opened an issue about this on GitHub and got it to work only as the root user. This resembles my experience with xorg. In that case I had to use the suid use flag. Is there an equivalent in this situation?
The suid flag can be applied only to executables. Whereas there are examples of libraries marked executable that can be run as standalone applications [*], the point of setting this executable bit is to show some info about the library, like the version number and so on. Nothing to do with the routines it provides to every program linked against the library then. So, the answer is no. On the other hand, the same goes for linux capabilities: https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/capabilities.7.html Hope this helps, Aitor. [*] For the sake of example, try running *|libc.so.6*|
