There have been a few requests for RET_KILL to kill the entire process (the thread group), but since seccomp's u32 return values are ABI, and ordered by lowest value, with RET_KILL as 0, there isn't a trivial way to provide an even smaller value that would mean the more restrictive action of killing the thread group. Instead, create a filter flag that indicates that a RET_KILL from this filter must kill the process rather than the thread. This can be set (and not cleared) via the new SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_KILL_PROCESS flag. Pros: - the logic for the filter action is contained in the filter. - userspace can detect support for the feature since earlier kernels will reject the new flag. Cons: - depends on adding an assignment to the seccomp_run_filters() loop (previous patch). Alternatives to this approach with pros/cons: - Use a new test during seccomp_run_filters() that treats the RET_DATA mask of a RET_KILL action as special. If a new bit is set in the data, then treat the return value as -1 (lower than 0). Pros: - the logic for the filter action is contained in the filter. Cons: - added complexity to time-sensitive seccomp_run_filters() loop. - there isn't a trivial way for userspace to detect if the kernel supports the feature (earlier kernels will silently ignore the RET_DATA and only kill the thread). - Have SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_KILL_PROCESS attach to the seccomp struct rather than the filter. Pros: - no change needed to seccomp_run_filters() loop. Cons: - the change in behavior technically originates external to the filter, which allows for later filters to "enhance" a previously applied filter's RET_KILL to kill the entire process, which may be unexpected.
