FYI, this conflicts with the changes -mm tree.

The changes in ptrace.* confict with Denys's
"ptrace: simplify PTRACE_foo constants and PTRACE_SETOPTIONS code"

The change in tracehook.h conflicts with
"ptrace: the killed tracee should not enter the syscall"

To be honest, this interface looks a bit strange to me...

Once again, sorry if this was already discussed. But perhaps it would
be better to introduce PTRACE_EVENT_SECCOMP/PTRACE_O_SECCOMP instead?

SECCOMP_RET_TRACE: could simply do ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_SECCOMP)
unconditionaly. The tracer can set the option and do PTRACE_CONT if it
doesn't want the system call notifications.

This is also much simpler, no need to change ptrace/tracehook files.

Oleg.
