Bug#474648: please re-enable CONFIG_SECCOMP, it's harmless (and needed)
Package: linux-image-2.6.24-1-amd64
Version: 2.6.24-5
Severity: important
CONFIG_SECCOMP was disabled for performance reasons, but it has always
been harmless. Quoting the author:
| On x86-64 SECCOMP generates absoutely zero performance hit.
|
| The original seccomp patch for x86 also generated absolutely zero
| performance hit, both pratically and theoretically too. _zero_ CPU
| cycles of difference, zero cachelines.
(From http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=115235061904105)
Please re-enable this feature. It is needed for CPUShare (see #417130).
