If so, I have no idea what the consequences would be.
and share the parent with the creator. Not good. But probably not too bad, one can abuse ->pidns_install() anyway, create a child in another ns, exit. Like it or not but pid_ns is "special" and you even sent the patch to reflect this sad^W fact. Anyway. The main point of this patch is the consistency (plus imho it cleanups/simplifies the code). Both CLONE_NEWPID and "task_active_pid_ns() != pid_ns" create a task in another namespace, we should use the same restrictions. And you seem to agree with this change, can I take it as your ack ? I am going to preserve your acks in 1-2 and resend.
