NAME
       seccomp_syscall_resolve_name - Resolve a syscall name

SYNOPSIS
       #include <seccomp.h>

       int seccomp_syscall_resolve_name(const char *name);
       int seccomp_syscall_resolve_name_arch(uint32_t arch_token,
					     const char *name);
       char *seccomp_syscall_resolve_num_arch(uint32_t arch_token, int num);

       Link with -lseccomp.

DESCRIPTION
       The  seccomp_syscall_resolve_name() and seccomp_syscall_resolve_name_arch() functions resolve the commonly used syscall name to the syscall
       number used by the kernel and the rest of the libseccomp API.  The seccomp_syscall_resolve_num_arch() function resolves the syscall  number
       used by the kernel to the commonly used syscall name.

       The caller is responsible for freeing the returned string from seccomp_syscall_resolve_num_arch().

RETURN VALUE
       In  the	case of seccomp_syscall_resolve_name() and seccomp_syscall_resolve_name_arch() the associated syscall number is returned, with the
       negative pseudo syscall number being returned  in  cases  where	the  given  syscall  does  not	exist  for  the  architeture.	The  value
       __NR_SCMP_ERROR	is  returned  in  case	of error.  In all cases, the return value is suitable for use in any libseccomp API function which
       requires the syscall number, examples include seccomp_rule_add() and seccomp_rule_add_exact().

       In the case of seccomp_syscall_resolve_num_arch() the associated syscall name is returned and it remains the callers responsibility to free
       the returned string via free(3).

EXAMPLES
       #include <seccomp.h>

       int main(int argc, char *argv[])
       {
	    int rc = -1;
	    scmp_filter_ctx ctx;

	    ctx = seccomp_init(SCMP_ACT_KILL);
	    if (ctx == NULL)
		 goto out;

	    /* ... */

	    rc = seccomp_rule_add(ctx, SCMP_ACT_ALLOW,
				  seccomp_syscall_resolve_name("open"), 0);
	    if (rc < 0)
		 goto out;

	    /* ... */

	    rc = seccomp_load(ctx);
	    if (rc < 0)
		 goto out;

	    /* ... */

       out:
	    seccomp_release(ctx);
	    return -rc;
       }

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.

       is currently under development, please report any bugs at the project site or directly to the author.
