DDEEBBUUGG FFLLAAGGSS	oo current working directory
ssuuddoo versions 1.8.4 and higher support a flexible debugging framework
that can help track down what ssuuddoo is doing internally if there is a
problem.

A Debug line consists of the Debug keyword, followed by the name of the	oo file creation mode mask (umask)
program to debug (ssuuddoo, vviissuuddoo, ssuuddoorreeppllaayy), the debug file name and a
comma-separated list of debug flags. The debug flag syntax used by
ssuuddoo and the _s_u_d_o_e_r_s plugin is _s_u_b_s_y_s_t_e_m@_p_r_i_o_r_i_t_y but the plugin is
free to use a different format so long as it does not include a command
,.

For instance:	oo SELinux role and type

Debug entry is shared by the ssuuddoo front end, ssuuddooeeddiitt and the plugins.
A future release may add support for per-plugin Debug lines and/or
support for multiple debugging files for a single program.

The priorities used by the ssuuddoo front end, in order of decreasing	oo scheduling priority (aka nice value)
severity, are: _c_r_i_t, _e_r_r, _w_a_r_n, _n_o_t_i_c_e, _d_i_a_g, _i_n_f_o, _t_r_a_c_e and _d_e_b_u_g.
Each priority, when specified, also includes all priorities higher than
it. For example, a priority of _n_o_t_i_c_e would include debug messages
logged at _n_o_t_i_c_e and higher.

The following subsystems are used by ssuuddoo:	PPrroocceessss mmooddeell
	When ssuuddoo runs a command, it calls fork(2), sets up the execution
	environment as described above, and calls the execve system call in the
	child process. The main ssuuddoo process waits until the command has
	completed, then passes the command's exit status to the security policy's
	close function and exits. If an I/O logging plugin is configured or if
	the security policy explicitly requests it, a new pseudo-terminal
	(``pty'') is created and a second ssuuddoo process is used to relay job
	control signals between the user's existing pty and the new pty the
	command is being run in. This extra process makes it possible to, for
	example, suspend and resume the command. Without it, the command would
	be in what POSIX terms an ``orphaned process group'' and it would not
	receive any job control signals. As a special case, if the policy plugin
	does not define a close function and no pty is required, ssuuddoo will
	execute the command directly instead of calling fork(2) first. The
	_s_u_d_o_e_r_s policy plugin will only define a close function when I/O logging
	is enabled, a pty is required, or the _p_a_m___s_e_s_s_i_o_n or _p_a_m___s_e_t_c_r_e_d options
	are enabled. Note that _p_a_m___s_e_s_s_i_o_n and _p_a_m___s_e_t_c_r_e_d are enabled by
	default on systems using PAM.

_a_l_l matches every subsystem	SSiiggnnaall hhaannddlliinngg
	When the command is run as a child of the ssuuddoo process, ssuuddoo will relay
	signals it receives to the command. Unless the command is being run in a
	new pty, the SIGHUP, SIGINT and SIGQUIT signals are not relayed unless
	they are sent by a user process, not the kernel. Otherwise, the command
	would receive SIGINT twice every time the user entered control-C. Some
	signals, such as SIGSTOP and SIGKILL, cannot be caught and thus will not
	be relayed to the command. As a general rule, SIGTSTP should be used
	instead of SIGSTOP when you wish to suspend a command being run by ssuuddoo.

_a_r_g_s command line argument processing	As a special case, ssuuddoo will not relay signals that were sent by the
	command it is running. This prevents the command from accidentally
	killing itself. On some systems, the reboot(1m) command sends SIGTERM to
	all non-system processes other than itself before rebooting the system.
	This prevents ssuuddoo from relaying the SIGTERM signal it received back to
	reboot(1m), which might then exit before the system was actually rebooted,
	leaving it in a half-dead state similar to single user mode. Note,
	however, that this check only applies to the command run by ssuuddoo and not
	any other processes that the command may create. As a result, running a
	script that calls reboot(1m) or shutdown(1m) via ssuuddoo may cause the system
	to end up in this undefined state unless the reboot(1m) or shutdown(1m) are
	run using the eexxeecc() family of functions instead of ssyysstteemm() (which
	interposes a shell between the command and the calling process).

_c_o_n_v user conversation	If no I/O logging plugins are loaded and the policy plugin has not
	defined a cclloossee() function, set a command timeout or required that the
	command be run in a new pty, ssuuddoo may execute the command directly
	instead of running it as a child process.

_e_d_i_t sudoedit	PPlluuggiinnss
	Plugins are dynamically loaded based on the contents of the sudo.conf(4)
	file. If no sudo.conf(4) file is present, or it contains no Plugin
	lines, ssuuddoo will use the traditional _s_u_d_o_e_r_s security policy and I/O
	logging. See the sudo.conf(4) manual for details of the _/_e_t_c_/_s_u_d_o_._c_o_n_f
	file and the sudo_plugin(1m) manual for more information about the ssuuddoo
	plugin architecture.

_e_x_e_c command execution	EEXXIITT VVAALLUUEE
	Upon successful execution of a program, the exit status from _s_u_d_o will
	simply be the exit status of the program that was executed.

_m_a_i_n ssuuddoo main function	Otherwise, ssuuddoo exits with a value of 1 if there is a
	configuration/permission problem or if ssuuddoo cannot execute the given
	command. In the latter case the error string is printed to the standard
	error. If ssuuddoo cannot stat(2) one or more entries in the user's PATH, an
	error is printed on stderr. (If the directory does not exist or if it is
	not really a directory, the entry is ignored and no error is printed.)
	This should not happen under normal circumstances. The most common
	reason for stat(2) to return ``permission denied'' is if you are running
	an automounter and one of the directories in your PATH is on a machine
	that is currently unreachable.

Upon successful execution of a program, the exit status from ssuuddoo will
simply be the exit status of the program that was executed.

Otherwise, ssuuddoo exits with a value of 1 if there is a
configuration/permission problem or if ssuuddoo cannot execute the given
command. In the latter case the error string is printed to the
standard error. If ssuuddoo cannot _s_t_a_t(2) one or more entries in the
user's PATH, an error is printed on stderr. (If the directory does not
exist or if it is not really a directory, the entry is ignored and no
error is printed.) This should not happen under normal circumstances.
The most common reason for _s_t_a_t(2) to return "permission denied" is if
you are running an automounter and one of the directories in your PATH
is on a machine that is currently unreachable.
