             Bug #: 13128
           Summary: intermediate privilege between stapdev and stapusr
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: runtime
        AssignedTo: systemtap@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: fche@redhat.com
    Classification: Unclassified


A request has come in to support a new level of stap user privilege,
below root-equivalent stapdev but above unprivileged stapusr.  The
defining characteristic is to be that custom embedded-C capability
is to be excluded from stapdev.

This is likely to require infrastructure such as that used for stapusr
(a compilation server, signatures, ...) to be secure.
