SYNOPSIS
#include <seccomp.h>
typedef void * scmp_filter_ctx;
int seccomp_merge(scmp_filter_ctx dst, scmp_filter_ctx src);
Link with -lseccomp.
DESCRIPTION
The seccomp_merge() function merges the seccomp filter in src with the filter in dst and stores the resulting in the dst filter. If successfull, the src seccomp filter is released and all internal memory assocated with the filter is freed; there is no need to call seccomp_release(3) on src and the caller should discard any references to the filter.
In order to merge two seccomp filters, both filters must have the same attribute values and no overlapping architectures.
RETURN VALUE
Returns zero on success and negative values on failure.EXAMPLES

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int rc = -1;
scmp_filter_ctx ctx_32, ctx_64;

goto out_all;

if (seccomp_arch_exist(ctx_32, SCMP_ARCH_X86) == -EEXIST) {
rc = seccomp_arch_add(ctx_32, SCMP_ARCH_X86);
if (rc != 0)
goto out_all;
rc = seccomp_arch_remove(ctx_32, SCMP_ARCH_NATIVE);
if (rc != 0)
goto out_all;
}
if (seccomp_arch_exist(ctx_64, SCMP_ARCH_X86_64) == -EEXIST) {
rc = seccomp_arch_add(ctx_64, SCMP_ARCH_X86_64);
if (rc != 0)
goto out_all;
rc = seccomp_arch_remove(ctx_64, SCMP_ARCH_NATIVE);
if (rc != 0)
goto out_all;
}
/* ... */
rc = seccomp_merge(ctx_64, ctx_32);
if (rc != 0)
goto out_all;
/* NOTE: the 'ctx_32' filter is no longer valid at this point */
/* ... */

seccomp_release(ctx_64);
return -rc;

goto out;
}
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.
