Subject: Re: Compat 32-bit syscall entry from 64-bit task!? [was: Re: [RFC,PATCH 1/2] seccomp_filters: system call filtering using BPF]

He's assuming that code can only run on two code segments and
not arbitarily switch between them which is a completely incorrect
assumption.

Possibly, but anything that bases its security on ptrace is typically
unfixable racy (just think what happens with multiple threads 
and syscall arguments), so it's unlikely to do any good.
