Jeff Dike | 4c9e138 | 2007-10-16 01:26:54 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 5 | This option gives you the ability to force a static link of UML. |
| 6 | Normally, UML is linked as a shared binary. This is inconvenient for |
| 7 | use in a chroot jail. So, if you intend to run UML inside a chroot, |
| 8 | you probably want to say Y here. |
| 9 | Additionally, this option enables using higher memory spaces (up to |

| 112 | This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications |

| 117 | their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is |

| 119 | and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls |
| 120 | defined by each seccomp mode. |
