From 6b4e306aa3dc94a0545eb9279475b1ab6209a31f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Sun, 7 Mar 2010 16:41:34 -0800 Subject: ns: proc files for namespace naming policy. 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. Acked-by: Daniel Lezcano Signed-off-by: Eric W.
