# Privileges can be added to this file at any location, not
# necessarily at the end. For patches, it is probably best to
# add the new privilege at the end; for ordinary releases privileges
# should be ordered alphabetically.

parent directory has the ``save text image after execution''
(sticky) bit set; mount a ``namefs'' upon a file; modify
permission bits or ACL except for the set-uid and set-gid

multi-level port(MLP) for the process's zone. This privilege
applies to both shared address and zone-specific address MLPs.
See tnzonecfg(4) from the Trusted Extensions manual pages for
information on configuring MLP ports.
This privilege is interpreted only if the system is configured
with Trusted Extensions.
privilege PRIV_NET_ICMPACCESS

privilege PRIV_PROC_LOCK_MEMORY
Allows a process to lock pages in physical memory.
privilege PRIV_PROC_OWNER
Allows a process to send signals to other processes, inspect
and modify process state to other processes regardless of
ownership. When modifying another process, additional
restrictions apply: the effective privilege set of the
attaching process must be a superset of the target process'
effective, permitted and inheritable sets; the limit set must
be a superset of the target's limit set; if the target process
has any uid set to 0 all privilege must be asserted unless the
effective uid is 0.
Allows a process to bind arbitrary processes to CPUs.
privilege PRIV_PROC_PRIOCNTL
Allows a process to elevate its priority above its current level.

queue sizes, event to class mappings, policy options).

device, a process must also have sufficient privileges to read from
and write to the swap device.
privilege PRIV_SYS_DEVICES

calls the kernel drv_priv(9F) function to check for allowed
access.
Allows a process to open the real console device directly.

privilege PRIV_SYS_IPC_CONFIG
Allows a process to increase the size of a System V IPC Message
Queue buffer.
privilege PRIV_SYS_LINKDIR
Allows a process to unlink and link directories.
privilege PRIV_SYS_MOUNT
Allows filesystem specific administrative procedures, such as
filesystem configuration ioctls, quota calls and creation/deletion
of snapshots.
Allows a process to mount and unmount filesystems which would
otherwise be restricted (i.e., most filesystems except
namefs).
A process performing a mount operation needs to have
appropriate access to the device being mounted (read-write for
"rw" mounts, read for "ro" mounts).
A process performing any of the aforementioned
filesystem operations needs to have read/write/owner
access to the mount point.
Only regular files and directories can serve as mount points
for processes which do not have all zone privileges asserted.
Unless a process has all zone privileges, the mount(2)
system call will force the "nosuid" and "restrict" options, the
latter only for autofs mountpoints.
Regardless of privileges, a process running in a non-global zone may
only control mounts performed from within said zone.
Outside the global zone, the "nodevices" option is always forced.

processes.

Allows a process to bind to ports reserved by NetBIOS and SMB:
ports 137 (NBNS), 138 (NetBIOS Datagram Service), 139 (NetBIOS
Session Service and SMB-over-NBT) and 445 (SMB-over-TCP).
privilege PRIV_SYS_SUSER_COMPAT

allocated to the process.
This privilege is interpreted only if the system is configured
with Trusted Extensions.
