That was because glibc exit(3) made some unexpected futex() calls, which hit our seccomp profile. We've since had some bugs due to missing the extra cleanup that exit(3) implemented, for which we've added explicit cleanup calls. Specifically, we have fflush() calls in some places to avoid leaving incomplete messages on stdout/stderr, and in other places fsync_pcap_and_log() to avoid leaving incomplete log or pcap files. It's easy to forget these when adding new error paths, so instead, implement our own passt_exit() wrapper to perform vital cleanup then call _exit(2). This also provides an obvious place to add any additional cleanups we discover we need in future.
