Thanks for the update, Tyler. I know this has been a long road, but the cumulative effect of everyone's hard work on this particular front will be huge. I'm very much looking forward to this.

In this manner learning tools can be written to parse the logs, etc and make developing on snappy easier. Unfortunately with seccomp only SCMP_ACT_KILL logs to dmesg and while we can set complain mode to permit all calls, they are not logged at this time. I've discussed this with upstream and we are working together on the approach. This may require a kernel patch and an update to libseccomp, to filing this bug for now as a placeholder and we'll add other tasks as necessary. UPDATE: ubuntu-core-launcher now supports the '@complain' directive that is a synonym for '@unrestricted' so people can at least turn on developer mode and not be blocked by seccomp. Proper complain mode for seccomp needs to still be implemented (this bug).
