Yes, but that wasn't my point. -ENOSYS is returned by the syscall 
dispatcher in entry.S for unimplemented syscalls, but should never be 
returned by syscalls that are implemented to avoid messing up syscall 
detection by user code.

What I attempt to do is support syscall filtering. Returning -ENOSYS in 
that case would run the risk of masking existing syscalls to user probe 
code just because the user process happens to have insufficient privileges.

Please correct me if that is actually the expected behaviour here.

Cheers,
