+ *  1 indicates execve(2) will operate in the privilege-restricting mode.
+ * 2)With no_new_privs set to 1, diables privilege granting operations
+ *  at execve-time. For example, a process will not be able to execute a
+ *  setuid binary to change their uid or gid if this bit is set. The same
+ *  is true for file capabilities.
+ * 3)The setting of this bit is inherited by children created by fork(2).
