Subject: [Bug documentation/10889] New: stap --unprivileged not documented
Date: Mon, 02 Nov 2009 15:38:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091102153751.10889.mjw@redhat.com> (raw)

Although stap --help will show:
   --unprivileged
              restrict usage to features available to unprivileged users

and when running stap unprivileged it will show:
ERROR: You are trying to run stap as a normal user.
You should either be root, or be part of either group "stapdev" or group "stapusr".
Alternatively, your module must be compiled using the --unprivileged option and
signed by a trusted signer.
For more information, please consult the "SAFETY AND SECURITY" section of the
"stap(1)" manpage

the "stap(1)" manpage doesn't actually mention --unprivileged anywhere.
