Subject[PATCH 0/4] seccomp: continue syscall from notifier
Date
Hey everyone,

This is the patchset coming out of the KSummit session Kees and I gave
in Lisbon last week (cf. [3] which also contains slides with more
details on related things such as deep argument inspection).
The simple idea is to extend the seccomp notifier to allow for the
continuation of a syscall. The rationale for this can be found in the
commit message to [1]. For the curious there is more detail in [2].
This patchset would unblock supervising an extended set of syscalls such
as mount() where a privileged process is supervising the syscalls of a
lesser privileged process and emulates the syscall for the latter in
userspace.
For more comments on security see [1].

Thanks!
Christian
