seccomp: whitelist syscalls fallocate(), fadvise64(), inotify_init1() and inotify_add_watch()
fallocate() is needed for snapshotting. If it isn’t whitelisted
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 x.qcow 1G
Formatting 'x.qcow', fmt=qcow2 size=
1073741824 encryption=off cluster_size=65536 lazy_refcounts=off
$ qemu-kvm -display none -monitor stdio -sandbox on x.qcow
QEMU 2.1.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) savevm foo
(qemu) loadvm foo
will fail, as will subsequent savevm commands on the same image.
fadvise64(), inotify_init1(), inotify_add_watch() are needed by
the SDL display. Without the whitelist entries,
qemu-kvm -sandbox on
fails immediately.
In my tests fadvise64() is called 50--51 times per VM run. That
number seems independent of the duration of the run. fallocate(),
inotify_init1(), inotify_add_watch() are called once each.
Accordingly, they are added to the whitelist at a very low
priority.
