Previously we were setting GRKERNSEC_PROC_USER y, which was a little bit too strict. It doesn't allow a special group (e.g. the grsecurity group users) to access /proc information - this requires GRKERNSEC_PROC_USERGROUP y, and the two are mutually exclusive. This was also not in line with the default automatic grsecurity configuration - it actually defaults to USERGROUP (although it has a default GID of 1001 instead of ours), not USER. This introduces a new option restrictProcWithGroup - enabled by default - which turns on GRKERNSEC_PROC_USERGROUP instead. It also turns off restrictProc by default and makes sure both cannot be enabled. Signed-off-by: Austin Seipp <aseipp@pobox.com>
