NAME

       seccomp_release - Release the seccomp filter state

SYNOPSIS

       #include <seccomp.h>

       typedef void * scmp_filter_ctx;

       void seccomp_release(scmp_filter_ctx ctx);

       Link with -lseccomp.

DESCRIPTION

       Releases  the seccomp filter in ctx which was first initialized by seccomp_init(3) or seccomp_reset(3) and frees any memory associated with
       the given seccomp filter context.  Any seccomp filters loaded into the kernel are not affected.

RETURN VALUE

       Does not return a value.

EXAMPLES

       #include <seccomp.h>

       int main(int argc, char *argv[])
       {
	    int rc;
	    scmp_filter_ctx ctx;

	    ctx = seccomp_init(SCMP_ACT_KILL);
	    if (ctx == NULL)
		 return -1;

	    /* ... */

	    seccomp_release(ctx);
	    return 0;
       }

NOTES

       While the seccomp filter can be generated independent of the kernel, kernel support is required to load and enforce the seccomp filter gen-
       erated by libseccomp.

       The  libseccomp project site, with more information and the source code repository, can be found at http://libseccomp.sf.net.  This library
       is currently under development, please report any bugs at the project site or directly to the author.
