For now, if the system administrator adds a certificate + to a database of trusted signers (stap-authorize-signing-cert), modules signed + using that certificate will be verified by staprun against tampering. + Otherwise, you should notice no difference in the operation of stap or staprun. * What's new in version 0.9.7 |
