Re: [PATCH] seccomp: Add pkru into seccomp_data

From: Florian Weimer <hidden>
Date: 2018-10-24 18:08:53
Also in: linuxppc-dev

* Michael Sammler:
Add the current value of the PKRU register to data available for
seccomp-bpf programs to work on. This allows filters based on the
currently enabled protection keys.

This doesn't cover the POWER implementation.  Adding Cc:s.

And I think the kernel shouldn't expose the number of protection keys in
the ABI.

Thanks,
