[PATCH v2] m68k: Fix seccomp filtering on ColdFire and 68000
From: Christopher Lusk
Date: Sun Sep 13 2026 - 09:18:21 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 the combined TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE and TIF_SECCOMP mask in both paths
and route either flag through the existing slow path. Leave the classic
MMU syscall entry implementation unchanged.
Validated the combined test under QEMU mcf5208evb (ColdFire): filters
denying getpid, openat, unlinkat, and reboot each returned -EPERM. A
classic-MMU control (q800) denied the filtered getpid syscall both before
and after this change. The 68000 path shares the same source-level
omission and receives the identical masked test but was not separately
emulated. Compile-tested W=1 with CONFIG_SECCOMP_FILTER=y on both
m5208evb_defconfig and a custom no-MMU UCSIMM configuration; the latter
built arch/m68k/68000/entry.o and vmlinux.

Notes:
Changes in v2:
- Combine the TRACE/SECCOMP tests into a single masked branch per Andreas
Schwab; scoped to the ColdFire/68000 paths, classic MMU unchanged.
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 combined gate uses the same flags byte as the classic-MMU
entry path.
