I guess you've tried Tetsuo's fork_blob("#!/bin/true") kernel module ?
yes. that fails. It never meant to be used for this.
With elf blob it works, but breaks if there are rejections
in things like security_bprm_creds_for_exec().
In my mind that path was 'must succeed or kernel module is toast'.
Like passing NULL into a function that doesn't check for it.
Working on a fix for that since Tetsuo cares.
