results in the system call being skipped immediately.
- seccomp syscall wired up
+ For best performance, an arch should use seccomp_phase1 and
+ seccomp_phase2 directly. It should call seccomp_phase1 for all
+ syscalls if TIF_SECCOMP is set, but seccomp_phase1 does not
+ need to be called from a ptrace-safe context. It must then
+ call seccomp_phase2 if seccomp_phase1 returns anything other
+ than SECCOMP_PHASE1_OK or SECCOMP_PHASE1_SKIP.
+
+ As an additional optimization, an arch may provide seccomp_data
+ directly to seccomp_phase1; this avoids multiple calls
+ to the syscall_xyz helpers for every syscall.
