This either seems like the wrong description as we're intercepting
mount() and mknod() already and as far as I can tell, addfd is not
needed in any way for them. addfd is targeted at system calls that
themselves would install a file descriptor in the intercepted task, e.g.
open() and accept().

Hm, the race is not specific to open though but any syscall and
specifically its bad for those syscalls with pointer arguments where the
supervisor copies out the memory, inspects it, and bases its decision on
them.

Hm, maybe change that description to sm like:

The seccomp notifier which was introduced a while back allows for
syscall supervision. It is often used in settings where a supervisising
task emulates syscalls for a supervised task in userspace either to
further restrict it's syscall capabilities or to circumvent kernel
enforced restrictions the supervisor deems safe to lift.
While the seccomp notifier allows for the interception of any syscall
only a certain set of syscalls can be correctly emulated. Over the last
cycles we have done work to reduce the set of syscalls which can't be
emulated with the addition of pidfd_getfd(). With this syscall we are
now able to e.g. intercept syscalls that require the supervisor to
operate on file descriptors of the supervisee such as connect().

However, syscalls that cause new file descriptors to be installed in the
supervisor can currently not be correctly emulated since there is no way
for the supervisor to inject file descriptors into the supervisee. The
new addfd ioctl removes this restriction by allowing the supervisor to
install file descriptors into the intercepted task. By implementing this
feature via seccomp the supervisor effectively instructs the supervisee
to install a set of file descriptors into its own file descriptor table.
With the new addfd extension it is possible to e.g. intercept syscalls
such as open() or accept(). The addfd ioctl allows allows to replace
existing file descriptors in the supervisee. One use-case would be to
replace stdout and stderr of a supervisee with a log file descriptor to
record the supervisees output.

Hm, so maybe add the following:

#define SECCOMP_NOTIFY_ADDFD_VER0 24
#define SECCOMP_NOTIFY_ADDFD_LATEST SECCOMP_NOTIFY_ADDFD_VER0

and then place:

BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(struct seccomp_notify_addfd) < SECCOMP_NOTIFY_ADDFD_VER0);
BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(struct open_how) != SECCOMP_NOTIFY_ADDFD_LATEST);

somewhere which is what we do for clone3(), openat2() and others to
catch build-time nonsense.
