commit 490365e5d076db13e9fed085bbc5b649ad261fd1 Author: Alexander Leidinger <[email protected]> AuthorDate: 2026-07-17 21:33:00 +0000 Commit: Mark Johnston <[email protected]> CommitDate: 2026-07-29 17:45:02 +0000 jail: restore ktrace privileges for jailed root Commit 4be491e1b9b3 ("jail: Optionally allow audit session state to be configured in a jail") removed the #if 0 around the audit cases in prison_priv_check() and added the PR_ALLOW_SETAUDIT check under them. This unintentionally captured the preceding case PRIV_KTRACE, which used to fall through the disabled block into the unconditional return (0) of the credential cases: since then, jailed root only has ktrace privileges (tracing processes with changed credentials, see ktrcanset()) when the unrelated allow.setaudit knob is enabled, and conversely gains them when that audit knob is turned on. Give PRIV_KTRACE back its own unconditional return (0), matching its comment and the pre-4be491e1b9b3 behaviour.
