Subject: [PATCH] Security: Add prctl(PR_{GET,SET}_NETWORK) interface.
Daniel Bernstein has observed [1] that security-conscious userland processes
may benefit from the ability to irrevocably remove their ability to create,
bind, connect to, or send messages except in the case of previously connected
sockets or AF_UNIX filesystem sockets. We provide this facility by implementing
support for a new prctl(PR_SET_NETWORK) flag named PR_NETWORK_OFF.
This facility is particularly attractive to security platforms like OLPC
Bitfrost [2] and to isolation programs like Rainbow [3] and Plash [4].
