    [$] Deep argument inspection for seccomp
    In the Kernel Summit
    track
    at the
    2019
    Linux Plumbers Conference
    , Christian Brauner and Kees Cook led a
    discussion on finding a way to do deep argument inspection for seccomp
    filtering. Currently, seccomp filters can only look at the top-level
    arguments to a system call, which means that there are use cases that
    cannot be supported. There was a lively discussion in the session, but no
    definitive conclusion was reached; various ideas were considered, but none
    seemed to quite fit the bill.
