Hi,
When attaching uretprobes to processes running inside docker, the attached
process is segfaulted when encountering the retprobe. The offending commit
is:
ff474a78cef5 ("uprobe: Add uretprobe syscall to speed up return probe")
To my understanding, the reason is that now that uretprobe is a system call,
the default seccomp filters in docker block it as they only allow a specific
set of known syscalls.
This behavior can be reproduced by the below bash script, which works before
this commit.
