Libseccomp Notices

The kata-agent binaries inside the Kata Containers images provided with this release are
statically linked with the following GNU LGPL-2.1 licensed libseccomp library.

The kata-agent uses the libseccomp v2.5.1 which is not modified from the upstream version.
However, in order to comply with the LGPL-2.1 (§6(a)), we attach the complete source code for the library.

If you want to use the kata-agent which is not statically linked with the library, you can build
a custom kata-agent that does not use the library from sources.
For the details, please check the developer guide.
