6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Itaru Kitayama <itaru.kitayama@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 2ffc27b15b11c9584ac46335c2ed2248d2aa4137 ] On Ubuntu and probably other distros, ptrace permissions are tightend a bit by default; i.e., /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_score is set to 1. This cases memfd_secret's ptrace attach test fails with a permission error. Set it to 0 piror to running the program.
