[Bug 1525457] [NEW] QEMU seccomp_sandbox prevents local SDL graphic from working

[Simon Déziel]

Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:

1) Set "seccomp_sandbox = 1" in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf
2) stop libvirt-bin; start libvirt-bin
3) Define a VM using SDL graphic. Example XML extract:
    <graphics type='sdl' display=':0' xauth='/home/simon/.Xauthority'/>
    <video>
      <model type='vmvga' vram='9216' heads='1'/>
    </video>
4) xhost +SI:localgroup:kvm
5) Start the VM

Expected behavior: should display a usable SDL window
Problematic behavior: displays an empty SDL window

Workaround: don't use QEMU's seccomp_sandbox
