NAME

       seccomp_release - Release the seccomp filter state

SYNOPSIS

       #include <seccomp.h>

       typedef void * scmp_filter_ctx;

       void seccomp_release(scmp_filter_ctx ctx);

       Link with -lseccomp.

DESCRIPTION

       Releases  the  seccomp  filter  in  ctx  which was first initialized by seccomp_init(3) or
       seccomp_reset(3) and frees any memory associated with the given  seccomp  filter  context.
       Any seccomp filters loaded into the kernel are not affected.

RETURN VALUE

       Does not return a value.

EXAMPLES

       #include <seccomp.h>

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

            ctx = seccomp_init(SCMP_ACT_KILL);
            if (ctx == NULL)
                 return -1;

            /* ... */

            seccomp_release(ctx);
            return 0;
       }

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.

       The libseccomp project site, with more information and the source code repository, can  be
       found  at  https://github.com/seccomp/libseccomp.   This  tool,  as well as the libseccomp
       library, is currently under development, please report any bugs at  the  project  site  or
       directly to the author.
