Status for libseccomp/2.6.0-2

Patch Description Author Forwarded Bugs Origin Last update
python_single_version_externally_managed.patch Fix building with setuptools instead of distutils. no
tests_remove_the_fuzzer_from_test_62-sim-arch_transactions.patch [PATCH] tests: remove the fuzzer from test 62-sim-arch_transactions
We can't reliably run the bpf-sim-fuzz tests on tests which manipulate
the filters arch/ABIs unless the filter is safe to run on all arch/ABIs,
which is more or less impossible. Remove the bpf-sim-fuzz test section
in test #62 to work around this, just as we do with the other similar
tests.

*len is the length of the destination buffer, but program->blks is
probably not anywhere near that long. It's already been checked above
that BPF_PGM_SIZE(program) is less than or equal to *len, so that's
the correct value to use here to avoid either reading or writing too
much.

I noticed this because tests/11-basic-basic_errors started failing on
musl after e797591 ("all: add seccomp_precompute() functionality").		 Alyssa Ross <hi@alyssa.is> no 2025-02-13
hash_fix_strict_aliasing_UB_in_MurMur_hash_implementation.patch [PATCH] hash: fix strict aliasing UB in MurMur hash implementation
This was spotted when trying to upgrade the libseccomp fedora package to
version 2.6.0 in fedora rawhide. It comes with gcc 15 and LTO enabled by
default. When running the test 61-sim-transactions we get plenty of such
errors in valgrind:

==265507== Use of uninitialised value of size 8

Investigating this a bit, it seems that because of LTO the MurMur hash
implementation is being inlined in _hsh_add. The two buffers data and
blocks to point at the same underlying data, but via incompatible type,
which is a strict aliasing violation. Instead, remove the getblock32
function and inline the copy with memcpy.

This is reproducible on a "fedora:rawhide" container (gcc 15) and using:
export CFLAGS='-O2 -flto=auto -ffat-lto-objects -g'
