WARNING instead of ERROR about sandbox init When running tests or Chrome on Linux it is common to get this message: :ERROR:sandbox_linux.cc(377)] InitializeSandbox() called with multiple threads in process gpu-process. The use of ERROR is particularly worrisome when investigating test failures because it suggests that this failure might be the root cause. This changes from ERROR to WARNING.

This directory contains platform-specific sandboxing libraries. Sandboxing is a technique that can improve the security of an application by separating untrustworthy code (or code that handles untrustworthy data) and restricting its privileges and capabilities.
Each platform relies on the operating system's process primitive to isolate code into distinct security principals, and platform-specific technologies are used to implement the privilege reduction. At a high-level:
mac/
uses the Seatbelt sandbox. See the detailed design for more.linux/
uses namespaces and Seccomp-BPF. See the detailed design for more.win/
uses a combination of restricted tokens, distinct job objects, alternate desktops, and integrity levels. See the detailed design for more.Built on top of the low-level sandboxing library is the //sandbox/policy
component, which provides concrete policies and helper utilities for sandboxing specific Chromium processes and services. The core sandbox library cannot depend on the policy component.
