[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1815889] Re: qemu-system-x86_64 crashed with signal 31 in __pthread_setaffinity_new()

[Daniel Berrange]

IMHO that mesa change is not valid. It is settings its affinity to run
on all threads which is definitely *NOT* something we want to be
allowed.  Management applications want to control which CPUs QEMU runs
on, and as such Mesa should honour the CPU placement that the QEMU
process has.

This is a great example of why QEMU wants to use seccomp to block
affinity changes to prevent something silently trying to use more CPUs
than are assigned to this QEMU.
