Thank you for resurrecting this code!

I have a question on the UAPI: the example code is using
PR_TASK_ISOLATION_USERSIG and it seems to be removed from this
version.

To enable isolation with SIGUSR1 the task should run:
prctl(PR_SET_TASK_ISOLATION, PR_TASK_ISOLATION_ENABLE
| PR_TASK_ISOLATION_SET_SIG(SIGUSR1), 0, 0, 0);

And to disable:
prctl(PR_SET_TASK_ISOLATION, 0, 0, 0, 0);

Is this correct?
