[PATCH] passt: Allow exit_group() system call in seccomp profiles - dev

13 Jul 2022

We handle SIGQUIT and SIGTERM calling exit(), which is usually
implemented with the exit_group() system call.

If we don't allow exit_group(), we'll get a SIGSYS while handling
SIGQUIT and SIGTERM, which means a misleading non-zero exit code.
