python-prctl -- Control process attributes through prctl
========================================================
The linux prctl function allows you to control specific characteristics of a
process' behaviour. Usage of the function is fairly messy though, due to
limitations in C and linux. This module provides a nice non-messy python(ic)
interface.
Besides prctl, this library also wraps libcap for complete capability handling
and allows you to set the process name as seen in ps and top.
See docs/index.rst for the documentation. An HTML version can be found on
http://packages.python.org/python-prctl/
Quick install instructions
==========================
Before installing python-prctl, you need GCC, libc headers and libcap headers.
On Debian/Ubuntu:
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential libcap-dev
On fedora:
$ sudo yum install gcc glibc-devel libcap-devel
Stable version:
$ sudo easy_install python-prctl
Latest code:
$ git clone http://github.com/seveas/python-prctl
