[PATCH] m68k: Fix seccomp filtering on ColdFire and 68000
From: Christopher Lusk
Date: Sat Sep 12 2026 - 19:07:14 EST
m68k selects HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER for all configurations, but the
ColdFire and 68000 syscall entry paths only branch to
syscall_trace_enter() for TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE. TIF_SECCOMP alone falls
through to syscall dispatch, leaving installed filters ineffective.
Test TIF_SECCOMP in both paths and route it through the existing slow
path, matching the classic MMU syscall entry implementation.
Validated under QEMU mcf5208evb (ColdFire): a task installing a seccomp
filter denying getpid() still executed the syscall before this change and
returns -EPERM with it; likewise for a filter denying
openat/unlinkat/reboot. A classic-MMU control (q800) denied the filtered
syscall both before and after, confirming the gap is specific to the
ColdFire/68000 entry paths. The 68000 path shares the same source-level
omission and receives the identical fix but was not separately emulated.
Compile-tested W=1 with CONFIG_SECCOMP_FILTER=y on m5208evb_defconfig.

Notes:
No in-tree m68k defconfig selects the pure-68000/DragonBall path.
Compile-tested W=1 with a custom no-MMU UCSIMM configuration and
CONFIG_SECCOMP_FILTER=y; arch/m68k/68000/entry.o and vmlinux both built
successfully. The added gate is form-identical to the ColdFire and
classic-MMU gates.
