To use it: +- Load the module +- Add /proc entries to the blacklist by running echo "path-to-proc-entry" > /proc/procprotect + +Caveats and todos: +- Only protects opens, not listings +- The ACL mechanism is currently very simple. Permission is denied to containers that have a non-root mount namespace. This will eventually be extended to cgroup-style ACLs.
