NAME
OpenBSD::Pledge - Perl interface to OpenBSD pledge(2)

SYNOPSIS
use OpenBSD::Pledge;

my $file = "/usr/share/dict/words";
pledge( qw( rpath ) ) || die "Unable to pledge: $!";
open my $fh, '<', $file or die "Unable to open $file: $!";

pledge() || die "Unable to pledge again: $!";
print grep { /pledge/i } readline($fh);
close $fh;

DESCRIPTION
This module provides a perl interface to OpenBSD's pledge(2) syscall(2).

Once you promise that your program will only use certain syscalls the
kernel will kill the program if it attempts to call any other
interfaces.

EXPORT
Exports "pledge" by default.

FUNCTIONS
pledge
Perl interface to pledge(2).

pledge(@promises)

The "stdio" promise is always implied, as perl(1) itself is useless
without it.

Returns true on success, returns false and sets $! on failure

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
Perl is particularly fond of "stdio" so that promise is always added by
"pledge".
