Hi everyone, I hope this is the right ML to ask this question. I am working on an App for Android and I recently got a problem running it on Kitkat. For Android 4.4 it seems that ptrace has been disallowed maybe by SELinux implementation. When calling ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0, 0, 0) to prevent a debugger from attaching, it returns -1. When I am running this through adb-shell ptrace() it works as expected. Does anyone know if there has been changes in regards to this? Is there a way to reenable the correct behaviour for ptrace or some other way to disallow attaching ptrace to the application? Any clarification on this would be highly appreciated. BR Holger
