+        help
+          This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
+          that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
+          execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
+          the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
+          syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
+          their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
+          enabled via /proc/<pid>/seccomp, it cannot be disabled
+          and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
+          defined by each seccomp mode.
+
+          If unsure, say Y. Only embedded should say N here.
