spec: Provide default-yama-scope.
When yama is enabled in the kernel it might be used to filter any user space access which requires PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH like ptrace attach, access to /proc/PID/{mem,personality,stack,syscall}, and the syscalls process_vm_readv and process_vm_writev which are used for interprocess services, communication and introspection (like synchronisation, signaling, debugging, tracing and profiling) of processes. These are precisely the things that libdw dwfl and ebl backends rely on. So make sure they don't mysteriously fail in such cases by providing the default yama scope sysctl value. This is implemented as a separate subpackage that just provides this functionality so other packages that don't directly rely on elfutils-libs can also just Requires: default-yama-scope to function properly. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1209492#c69 Signed-off-by: Mark Wielaard <[email protected]>
