Currently, init_listener() tries to prevent adding a filter with
SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_NEW_LISTENER if one of the existing filters already
has a listener. However, this check happens without holding any lock that
would prevent another thread from concurrently installing a new filter
(potentially with a listener) on top of the ones we already have.
Theoretically, this is also a data race: The plain load from
current->seccomp.filter can race with concurrent writes to the same
location.
Fix it by moving the check into the region that holds the siglock to guard
against concurrent TSYNC.
(The "Fixes" tag points to the commit that introduced the theoretical
data race; concurrent installation of another filter with TSYNC only
became possible later, in commit 51891498f2da ("seccomp: allow TSYNC and
USER_NOTIF together").)
Fixes: 6a21cc50f0c7 ("seccomp: add a return code to trap to userspace")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
