NAME

       seccomp_load - Load the current seccomp filter into the kernel

SYNOPSIS

       #include <seccomp.h>

       typedef void * scmp_filter_ctx;

       int seccomp_load(scmp_filter_ctx ctx);

       Link with -lseccomp.

DESCRIPTION

       Loads the seccomp filter provided by ctx into the kernel; if the function succeeds the new seccomp filter
       will be active when the function returns.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns zero on success, negative errno values on failure.

EXAMPLES

       #include <seccomp.h>

       int main(int argc, char *argv[])
       {
            int rc = -1;
            scmp_filter_ctx ctx;

            ctx = seccomp_init(SCMP_ACT_KILL);
            if (ctx == NULL)
                 goto out;

            /* ... */

            rc = seccomp_load(ctx);
            if (rc < 0)
                 goto out;

            /* ... */

       out:
            seccomp_release(ctx);
            return -rc;
       }

NOTES

       While  the  seccomp filter can be generated independent of the kernel, kernel support is required to load
       and enforce the seccomp filter generated by libseccomp.

       project site or directly to the author.
