It was merged into the Linux kernel mainline in kernel version 2.6.12, which was released on March 8, 2005.[1] seccomp allows a process to make a one-way transition into a "secure" state where it cannot make any system calls except exit(), sigreturn(), read() and write() to already-open file descriptors. Should it attempt any other system calls, the kernel will terminate the process with SIGKILL or SIGSYS[2][3]. In this sense, it does not virtualize the system's resources but isolates the process from them entirely. - -## Dependencies +seccomp (short for secure computing mode) is a BPF based syscall filter language and present a more conventional function-call based filtering interface that should be familiar to, and easily adopted by, application developers. ## Building + make - Generates default.json file, which containes the whitelisted syscalls that can be used by container runtime engines like [CRI-O][cri-o], [Buildah][buildah], [Podman][podman] and [Docker][docker], and container runtimes like OCI [Runc][runc] to controll the syscalls available to containers. ### Supported build tags + `seccomp` + ## Contributing When developing this library, please use `make` (or `make … BUILDTAGS=…`) to take advantage of the tests and validation. @@ -19,3 +20,10 @@ ASL 2.0 ## Contact - IRC: #[CRI-O](irc://irc.freenode.net:6667/#cri-o) on freenode.net + +[cri-o]: https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/cri-o/pulls +[buildah]: https://github.com/projectatomic/buildah +[podman]: https://github.com/projectatomic/podman +[docker]: https://github.com/docker/docker +[runc]: https://github.com/opencontainers/runc + |
