o Minor features:
- If set to 1, Tor will attempt to prevent basic debugging attachment
attempts by other processes. It has no impact for users who wish to
attach if they have CAP_SYS_PTRACE or if they are root. We believe that
this feature works on modern Gnu/Linux distributions, and that it may
also work on *BSD systems (untested). Some modern Gnu/Linux systems such
as Ubuntu have the kernel.yama.ptrace_scope sysctl and by default enable
it as an attempt to limit the PTRACE scope for all user processes by
default. This feature will attempt to limit the PTRACE scope for Tor
specifically - it will not attempt to alter the system wide ptrace scope
as it may not even exist. If you wish to attach to Tor with a debugger
