* proc: Fix Oops on stat of /proc/<zombie pid>/ns/netEric W. Biederman2011-06-151-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | Don't call iput with the inode half setup to be a namespace filedescriptor. Instead rearrange the code so that we don't initialize ei->ns_ops until after I ns_ops->get succeeds, preventing us from invoking ns_ops->put when ns_ops->get failed.

* ns: proc files for namespace naming policy.Eric W. Biederman2011-05-101-0/+188
Create files under /proc/<pid>/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/<pid>/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/<N> /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 <daniel.lezcano@free.fr> Signed-off-by: Eric W.
