NAME
Perinci::Sub::Property::drops_privilege - Declare that function drops
privilege during running
VERSION
version 0.06
SYNOPSIS
# in your function metadata
drops_privilege => 'temp'
DESCRIPTION
Valid values: '', 'temporary' (or 'temp'), or 'permanent' (or 'perm').
This property declares that function drops privilege (either temporarily
by setting EUID ($>), or permanently by setting UID ($<)) during
execution. Usually the function is run by superuser and needs to perform
things on behalf of normal users.
This property's wrapper implementation currently does this: If privilege
is dropped temporarily, make sure that we switch back to superuser.
Sometimes when the function dies, privileges are not restored, causing
failure to subsequent operation.
