Subject: [Qemu-devel] [Bug 690776] [NEW] Overwrite argv to set process title, eliminating 16-character prctl() limit.
Date: Wed, 15 Dec 2010 18:16:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101215181600.22832.16013.malonedeb@gandwana.canonical.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20101215181600.22832.16013.malonedeb@gandwana.canonical.com

Public bug reported:

I've modified qemu to overwrite its arguments to set the process title,
since its current prctl() method has a 16-character limit.

I posted the original patch to qemu-devel, made the changes others
suggested, then re-posted to qemu-devel. I flailed around a bit with the
patch submission process and think I finally got it right, but haven't
been able to gain the notice of a committer to have this pushed. Maybe
this will get more attention when reported in the BTS.
