No, seccomp filters are defined and enforced at the process level.

Perhaps we can add (at the kernel level) a way for seccomp filters to
examine the current tid.

Sorry for the confusion. I corrected my statement in a later thread based on Will's input: http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-06/msg03212.html


seccomp filters are attached to the task_struct and apply per "thread"
or per process since they both get their own task_structs.  (For
Linux, process==thread with shared resources.)  Filter programs are
also inherited across clone/fork, so it's possible to install a
"global" filter program which applies which is inherited during thread
creation, then apply per-thread refinements by stacking on additional
filters (at the cost of additional evaluation time).

hth!

Thanks!
