Can you elaborate on what this would look like? I think with the "these two filters are the same" primitive (the same in the sense that they were inherited during a fork, not just that memcmp(filter1->insns, filter2->insns) == 0) you can infer the entire hierarchy, however clunky it may be to do so. Another issue is that KCMP_FILE won't work in this case, as it effectively compares the struct file *, which will be different since we need to call anon_inode_getfd() for each call of ptrace(PTRACE_SECCOMP_GET_FILTER_FD). We could add a KCMP_BPF (or just a KCMP_FILE_PRIVATE_DATA, since that's effectively what it would be). Does that make sense? [added Cyrill] Tycho
