NuttX currently sets the user and group IDs of "normally" created tasks to the IDs of the parent: https://github.com/apache/nuttx/blob/master/sched/group/group_create.c#L91 I think an inconsistent policy for executable modules would be a bad idea. When running executable files on a file system, the POSIX behavior differs depending on the state of ST_NOSUID permission bit on the file. Are you trying to emulate setting the UID from the UID in the executable file permissions? I certainly think we as a project need to agree on this policy before we commit to it. This has long term implications for behavior and compatibility with POSIX and other *nix systems. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
