LIBRARY
       Standard C library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
       #include <linux/prctl.h>  /* Definition of PR_* constants */

DESCRIPTION
       Return the value of the no_new_privs attribute for the calling thread.
       A value of 0 indicates the regular execve(2) behavior.  A value of 1
       indicates execve(2) will operate in the privilege-restricting mode
       described in PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS(2const).

RETURN VALUE
       On success, PR_GET_NO_NEW_PRIVS returns the boolean value described
       above.  On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the
       error.
