* namespaces: cleanup the code managed with PID_NS optionPavel Emelyanov2008-02-081-0/+6

* pidns: Place under CONFIG_EXPERIMENTALEric W. Biederman2007-11-141-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is my trivial patch to swat innumerable little bugs with a single blow. After some intensive review (my apologies for not having gotten to this sooner) what we have looks like a good base to build on with the current pid namespace code but it is not complete, and it is still much to simple to find issues where the kernel does the wrong thing outside of the initial pid namespace. Until the dust settles and we are certain we have the ABI and the implementation is as correct as humanly possible let's keep process ID namespaces behind CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL. Allowing us the option of fixing any ABI or other bugs we find as long as they are minor. Allowing users of the kernel to avoid those bugs simply by ensuring their kernel does not have support for multiple pid namespaces.

* pid namespaces: make proc have multiple superblocks - one for each namespacePavel Emelyanov2007-10-191-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each pid namespace have to be visible through its own proc mount. Thus we need to have per-namespace proc trees with their own superblocks. We cannot easily show different pid namespace via one global proc tree, since each pid refers to different tasks in different namespaces. E.g. pid 1 refers to the init task in the initial namespace and to some other task when seeing from another namespace. Moreover - pid, exisintg in one namespace may not exist in the other. This approach has one move advantage is that the tasks from the init namespace can see what tasks live in another namespace by reading entries from another proc tree.

* pid namespaces: add support for pid namespaces hierarchyPavel Emelyanov2007-10-191-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each namespace has a parent and is characterized by its "level". Level is the number of the namespace generation. E.g. init namespace has level 0, after cloning new one it will have level 1, the next one - 2 and so on and so forth. This level is not explicitly limited. True hierarchy must have some way to find each namespace's children, but it is not used in the patches, so this ability is not added (yet).

* pid namespaces: define and use task_active_pid_ns() wrapperSukadev Bhattiprolu2007-10-191-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With multiple pid namespaces, a process is known by some pid_t in every ancestor pid namespace. Every time the process forks, the child process also gets a pid_t in every ancestor pid namespace. While a process is visible in >=1 pid namespaces, it can see pid_t's in only one pid namespace. We call this pid namespace it's "active pid namespace", and it is always the youngest pid namespace in which the process is known. This patch defines and uses a wrapper to find the active pid namespace of a process. The implementation of the wrapper will be changed in when support for multiple pid namespaces are added. Changelog: 2.6.22-rc4-mm2-pidns1: - [Pavel Emelianov, Alexey Dobriyan] Back out the change to use task_active_pid_ns() in child_reaper() since task->nsproxy can be NULL during task exit (so child_reaper() continues to use init_pid_ns). to implement child_reaper() since init_pid_ns.child_reaper to implement child_reaper() since tsk->nsproxy can be NULL during exit. 2.6.21-rc6-mm1: - Rename task_pid_ns() to task_active_pid_ns() to reflect that a process can have multiple pid namespaces.

* pid namespaces: dynamic kmem cache allocator for pid namespacesPavel Emelianov2007-10-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add kmem_cache to pid_namespace to allocate pids from. Since both implementations expand the struct pid to carry more numerical values each namespace should have separate cache to store pids of different sizes. Each kmem cache is name "pid_<NR>", where <NR> is the number of numerical ids on the pid. Different namespaces with same level of nesting will have same caches. This patch has two FIXMEs that are to be fixed after we reach the consensus about the struct pid itself. The first one is that the namespace to free the pid from in free_pid() must be taken from pid. Now the init_pid_ns is used. The second FIXME is about the cache allocation. When we do know how long the object will be then we'll have to calculate this size in create_pid_cachep. Right now the sizeof(struct pid) value is used.

* namespace: ensure clone_flags are always stored in an unsigned longEric W. Biederman2007-07-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While working on unshare support for the network namespace I noticed we were putting clone flags in an int. Which is weird because the syscall uses unsigned long and we at least need an unsigned to properly hold all of the unshare flags. So to make the code consistent, this patch updates the code to use unsigned long instead of int for the clone flags in those places where we get it wrong today. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* Merge sys_clone()/sys_unshare() nsproxy and namespace handlingBadari Pulavarty2007-05-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sys_clone() and sys_unshare() both makes copies of nsproxy and its associated namespaces. But they have different code paths. This patch merges all the nsproxy and its associated namespace copy/clone handling (as much as possible). Posted on container list earlier for feedback. - Create a new nsproxy and its associated namespaces and pass it back to caller to attach it to right process. - Changed all copy_*_ns() routines to return a new copy of namespace instead of attaching it to task->nsproxy. - Moved the CAP_SYS_ADMIN checks out of copy_*_ns() routines. - Removed unnessary !ns checks from copy_*_ns() and added BUG_ON() just incase. - Get rid of all individual unshare_*_ns() routines and make use of copy_*_ns() instead.

* [PATCH] namespaces: fix task exit disasterSerge E. Hallyn2007-01-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is based on a patch by Eric W. Biederman, who pointed out that pid namespaces are still fake, and we only have one ever active. So for the time being, we can modify any code which could access tsk->nsproxy->pid_ns during task exit to just use &init_pid_ns instead, and move the exit_task_namespaces call in do_exit() back above exit_notify(), so that an exiting nfs server has a valid tsk->sighand to work with. Long term, pulling pid_ns out of nsproxy might be the cleanest solution. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] add child reaper to pid_namespaceSukadev Bhattiprolu2006-12-081-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a per pid_namespace child-reaper. This is needed so processes are reaped within the same pid space and do not spill over to the parent pid space.
