I should clarify: seccomp expects to find whatever is sent as the
syscall nr... as in the __NR_read used like this:

BPF_STMT(BPF_LD+BPF_W+BPF_ABS,
offsetof(struct seccomp_data, nr)),
BPF_JUMP(BPF_JMP+BPF_JEQ+BPF_K, __NR_read, 0, 1),
BPF_STMT(BPF_RET+BPF_K, SECCOMP_RET_KILL),
BPF_STMT(BPF_RET+BPF_K, SECCOMP_RET_ALLOW),

Are there native x32 users yet? What does __NR_read resolve to via the
uapi on a native x32 userspace?
