| |
Hi,
Is there a simple way (via a kernel boot option or config setting or - if really necessary - a patch or something like that) to set the personality for the init process? I'm running an x86_64 kernel on a system whose userland is almost entirely 32-bits (but needs an occasional 64-bit process to be run, hence the choice of kernel), and I'd like `uname -m` to be i686 unless I take special action. So I think that means letting init (which is indeed a 32-bit process) have the PER_LINUX32 personality (in case I'm wrong about this, the output of uname -m is essentially what matters to me).
So, where does the default come from?
