27 .SH DESCRIPTION
28 .\" //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
29 .P
30 The
31 .BR seccomp_arch_exist ()
32 function tests to see if a given architecture has been added to the seccomp
33 filter in
34 .I ctx
35 , where the
36 .BR seccomp_arch_add ()
37 and
38 .BR seccomp_arch_remove ()
39 add and remove, respectively, architectures from the seccomp filter. In all
40 three functions, the architecture values given in
41 .I arch_token
42 should be the
43 .BR SCMP_ARCH_*
44 defined constants; with the
45 .BR SCMP_ARCH_NATIVE
46 constant always referring to the native compiled architecture. The
47 .BR seccomp_arch_native ()
48 function returns the system's architecture such that it will match one of the
49 .BR SCMP_ARCH_*
50 constants. While the
51 .BR seccomp_arch_resolve_name ()
52 function also returns a
53 .BR SCMP_ARCH_*
54 constant, the returned token matches the name of the architecture
55 passed as an argument to the function.
56 .P
57 When a seccomp filter is initialized with the call to
58 .BR seccomp_init (3)
59 the native architecture is automatically added to the filter.
60 .P
61 While it is possible to remove all architectures from a filter, most of the
62 libseccomp APIs will fail if the filter does not contain at least one
63 architecture.
64 .P
65 When adding a new architecture to an existing filter, the existing rules will
66 not be added to the new architecture. However, rules added after adding the
67 new architecture will be added to all of the architectures in the filter.

69 .SH RETURN VALUE
70 .\" //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
71 The
72 .BR seccomp_arch_add ()
73 and
74 .BR seccomp_arch_remove ()
75 functions return zero on success, negative errno values on failure. The
76 .BR seccomp_arch_exist ()
77 function returns zero if the architecture exists, \-EEXIST if it does not, and
78 other negative errno values on failure.

113 .P
114 While the seccomp filter can be generated independent of the kernel, kernel
115 support is required to load and enforce the seccomp filter generated by
116 libseccomp.
