You mean as used in audit_log_exit() ? It looks like that depends on a
lot of state cached in __audit_syscall_entry() and finally triggered

really want seccomp wants to be involved in.

By CONFIG_AUDITSC, you mean CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL? Without that set,
audit_seccomp is a no-op.

The reason compat needs to be reported (or rather, arch) is because
just reporting syscall is ambiguous. It either needs arch or compat to
distinguish it.

Yes, that is what I mean and you are right.  You shouldn't push the
syscall in this record either.  If !audit_dummy_context() you are
already going to get arch, syscall, and a0-a4 in the associated audit
record.  Please do not duplicate that info.

It might make sense to have a separate audit_seccomp() path when
audit_dummy_context() which includes arch, syscall, and a0-a4.

It is my fault (85e7bac3) that we have syscall at all, but I'm on a new
crusade to remove audit record duplication.  So I'd happily see a patch
in this series that removes that instead of adds to it.
