------- Comment From stros...@us.ibm.com 2015-08-18 21:27 EDT------- The patches for seccomp mode 2 support are queued for 4.3; as they were developed against 4.2, I would expect them to apply cleanly to the Ubuntu 15.10 kernel. I am willing to help with backporting if they don't, or if other modifications to the Ubuntu kernel cause issues with applying them.
There were 11 patches in the patchset: [PATCH 01/11] powerpc/kernel: Switch to using MAX_ERRNO https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-July/131601.html [PATCH 02/11] powerpc/kernel: Change the do_syscall_trace_enter() API https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-July/131602.html [PATCH 03/11] powerpc: Drop unused syscall_get_error() https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-July/131603.html [PATCH 04/11] powerpc: Don't negate error in syscall_set_return_value() https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-July/131604.html [PATCH 05/11] powerpc: Rework syscall_get_arguments() so there is only one loop https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-July/131605.html [PATCH 06/11] powerpc: Use orig_gpr3 in syscall_get_arguments() https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-July/131606.html [PATCH 07/11] powerpc: Change syscall_get_nr() to return int https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-July/131607.html [PATCH 08/11] powerpc/kernel: Add SIG_SYS support for compat tasks https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-July/131608.html [PATCH 09/11] powerpc/kernel: Enable seccomp filter https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-July/131609.html [PATCH 10/11] selftests/seccomp: Make seccomp tests work on big endian https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-July/131610.html [PATCH 11/11] selftests/seccomp: Add powerpc support https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-July/131611.html -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1458876 Title: [Ubuntu 15.10] Add seccomp mode 2 to the Ubuntu Power LE kernel Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: seccomp mode 2 involves the parsing of BPF (Berkeley Packet Filter) configuration files to define system call filtering. Mode 2 is not currently supported on Power; this feature covers the addition of this support, which likely includes updates to the kernel and to libseccomp.
