X server Privilege Model on Solaris - explaining how we drop privs and reviewing to see what's upstreamable.
Alan Coopersmith
Solaris includes Xorg built with patches that drop root privileges after startup, relying on the kernel to handle input device access for hotplugging & vt switching, and utilizing patches to gdm to pass information to Xorg on authenticated users. This talk will go over some of the details and open a discussion on what should be upstreamed.
