[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] linux-user: return EINVAL from prctl(PR_*_SECCOMP)

[James Cowgill]

If an application tries to install a seccomp filter using
prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP), the filter is likely for the target instead of the host
architecture. This will probably cause qemu to be immediately killed when it
executes another syscall.

Prevent this from happening by returning EINVAL from both seccomp prctl
calls. This is the error returned by the kernel when seccomp support is
disabled.
