Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] seccomp: continue syscall from notifier

Hey everyone,

/* v2 */
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] and the comments in
include/uapi/linux/seccomp.h added by this patchset.

Kees, if you prefer a pr the series can be pulled from:
git@...olite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux tags/seccomp-notify-syscall-continue-v5.5

For anyone who wants to play with this it's sitting in:
