ns: proc files for namespace naming policy.

2011-05-10T21:31:44+00:00

Create files under /proc//ns/ to allow controlling the
namespaces of a process.

This addresses three specific problems that can make namespaces hard to
work with.
- Namespaces require a dedicated process to pin them in memory.
- It is not possible to use a namespace unless you are the child
  of the original creator.
- Namespaces don't have names that userspace can use to talk about
  them.

The namespace files under /proc//ns/ can be opened and the
file descriptor can be used to talk about a specific namespace, and
to keep the specified namespace alive.

A namespace can be kept alive by either holding the file descriptor
open or bind mounting the file someplace else.  aka:
mount --bind /proc/self/ns/net /some/filesystem/path
mount --bind /proc/self/fd/ /some/filesystem/path

This allows namespaces to be named with userspace policy.

It requires additional support to make use of these filedescriptors
and that will be comming in the following patches.

proc: move proc_console.c to fs/proc/consoles.c

2011-01-13T16:03:17+00:00

Filename is supposed to match procfile name for random junk.

Add __init while I'm at it.

console: add /proc/consoles

2010-11-16T20:50:17+00:00

It allows users to see what consoles are currently known to the system
and with what flags.

It is based on Werner's patch, the part about traversing fds was
removed, the code was moved to kernel/printk.c, where consoles are
handled and it makes more sense to me.

procfs: simplify conditional processing of fs/proc.o.

2010-08-11T15:59:20+00:00

Since the entire fs/proc directory is conditionally included based on
CONFIG_PROC_FS, it's redundant to check that same variable within that
directory.

proc: export statistics for softirq to /proc

2009-06-18T20:03:41+00:00

Export statistics for softirq in /proc/softirqs and /proc/stat.

1. /proc/softirqs
Implement /proc/softirqs which shows the number of softirq
for each CPU like /proc/interrupts.

2. /proc/stat
Add the "softirq" line to /proc/stat.
This line shows the number of softirq for all cpu.
The first column is the total of all softirqs and
each subsequent column is the total for particular softirq.
