The ``id`` member of ``struct seccomp_notif_resp`` should be the same ``id`` as in ``struct seccomp_notif``. +Userspace can also add file descriptors to the notifying process via +``ioctl(SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD)``. The ``id`` member of +``struct seccomp_notif_addfd`` should be the same ``id`` as in +``struct seccomp_notif``.

The supervisor can also add an FD, and +respond atomically by using the ``SECCOMP_ADDFD_FLAG_SEND`` flag and the return +value will be the injected file descriptor number. + It is worth noting that ``struct seccomp_data`` contains the values of register arguments to the syscall, but does not contain pointers to memory.
