PROCCONTROL(1) General Commands Manual PROCCONTROL(1) NAME proccontrol -- Control some process execution aspects SYNOPSIS proccontrol -m mode [-s control] [-q] -p pid | command DESCRIPTION The proccontrol command modifies the execution parameter of existing process specified by the pid argument, or starts execution of the new program command with the execution parameter set for it. Which execution parameter is changed, selected by the mandatory parame- ter mode. Possible values for mode are: aslr Control the Address Space Layout Randomization. Only applica- ble to the new process spawned. trace Control the permission for debuggers to attach. Note that process is only allowed to enable tracing for itself, not for any other process. trapcap Controls the signalling of capability mode access violations. protmax Controls the implicit PROT_MAX application for mmap(2). nonewprivs Controls disabling the setuid and sgid bits for execve(2). wxmap Controls the write exclusive execute mode for mappings. kpti Controls the KPTI enable, AMD64 only. la48 Control limiting usermode process address space to 48 bits of address, AMD64 only, on machines capable of 57-bit addressing. The control specifies if the selected mode should be enabled or dis- abled. Possible values are enable and disable, with the default value being enable if not specified. See procctl(2) for detailed description of each mode effects and interaction with other process control facili- ties. The -q switch makes the utility query and print the current setting for the selected mode. The -q requires the query target process specifica- tion with -p. EXIT STATUS The proccontrol utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. EXAMPLES • To disable debuggers attachment to the process 1020, execute proccontrol -m trace -s disable -p 1020 • To execute the uniq(1) program in a mode where capability access violations cause SIGTRAP delivery, do proccontrol -m trapcap uniq • To query the current ASLR enablement mode for the running process 1020, do proccontrol -m aslr -q -p 1020 SEE ALSO kill(2), procctl(2), ptrace(2), mitigations(7) HISTORY The proccontrol command appeared in FreeBSD 10.0.
