python-python-prctl

Python(ic) interface to the linux prctl syscall

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.
