Modified files:
sys/kern kern_prot.c
Log:
Add a new sysctl, security.bsd.conservative_signals, to disable
special signal-delivery protections for setugid processes. In the
event that a system is relying on "unusual" signal delivery to
processes that change their credentials, this can be used to work
around application problems.
Also, add SIGALRM to the set of signals permitted to be delivered to
setugid processes by unprivileged subjects.
