It should not require anything beyond what kernel/glibc provides - we even build our own /bin/sh for in-container use. All the containerization code is in support/test-container.c. However, some kernels and/or OSs are *configured* (i.e. for security reasons) to disallow certain types of namespace unsharing - those should be detected by test-container and flagged as unsupported tests. By "container" I mean a simple filesystem/pid namespace using unshare, sort of a fancy chroot() but it changes your UID and PID also. See https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2018/11/16/microcontainers-for-unit-testing/ for some background info. _______________________________________________ linux-snps-arc mailing list linux-snps-arc@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-snps-arc
