linux-toradex.git/include/linux/if_link.h, branch v2.6.27.27 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules [NET]: netlink support for moving devices between network namespaces. 2007-10-10T23:49:13+00:00 Eric W. Biederman ebiederm@xmission.com 2007-09-12T11:57:04+00:00 d8a5ec672768c3cf4d51d7a63fc071520afa1617 The simplest thing to implement is moving network devices between namespaces. However with the same attribute IFLA_NET_NS_PID we can easily implement creating devices in the destination network namespace as well. However that is a little bit trickier so this patch sticks to what is simple and easy. A pid is used to identify a process that happens to be a member of the network namespace we want to move the network device to. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

A pid is used to identify a process that happens to be a member
of the network namespace we want to move the network device to.
