From: Etienne Cordonnier <[email protected]> In https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/924453c22599cc246746a0233b2f52a27ade0819 ProtectHome was set to true for systemd-coredump in order to reduce risk, since an attacker could craft a malicious binary in order to compromise systemd-coredump. At that point the object analysis was done in the main systemd-coredump process. Because of this systemd-coredump is unable to product symbolicated call-stacks for binaries running under /home ("n/a" is shown instead of function names).
However, later in https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/61aea456c12c54f49c4a76259af130e576130ce9 systemd-coredump was changed to do the object analysis in a forked process, covering those security concerns. Let's set ProtectHome to read-only so that systemd-coredump produces symbolicated call-stacks for processes running under /home. Note: it still does not work in /tmp (because of PrivateTmp=yes) and in /root (for unknown reasons).
