This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- precise' to 'verification-done-precise'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

Now that the ARM support is upstream too, it would be great to have the same level of support on ARM in the LTS kernel. I'll prepare patches. [Impact] ARM devices lack seccomp-bpf protections when running seccomp-aware applications (e.g. Chrome) [Test Case] git clone https://github.com/redpig/seccomp.git cd seccomp/tests make ./seccomp_bpf_tests All tests should pass [Regression Potential] Low: ARM currently has no seccomp-bpf support, so this is very unlikely to cause regressions. The changes that are common between x86 and ARM bring Precise closer to upstream seccomp-bpf, so this is similarly unlike to cause regressions (as this code is more correct than what is currently in Precise). Changes have been minimized, and tested.
