@bplb and I discussed this yesterday and agreed that the proposal here isn't the right thing for main line. There will be other opinions but I think your options are:

- Use a newer release of docker and/or the seccomp configuration where this is fixed. You mentioned that it was fixed in v19 which appears to have been released in 2019.
- Request to jdk update maintainers to backout JDK-8338696 from 17u and 21u.
- Propose the change to 17u and 21u to allow it work in seccomp config that blocks this sys call.
