Maybe include all per-ns ID in a separate file? Then the old 'status' file includes IDs from the current namespace only, the new file (e.g. 'ids' or 'ns_ids') contains only hierarchical IDs which differ from namespace to namespace for all possible namespaces. It will be simplier to parse the file -- if 'ns_ids' file contains some ID then this ID for every ns can be obtained regardless of the specific ID name (SID, PID, PGID, etc.). > > > If some issues occurred inside container guest, host user > > could not know which process is in trouble just by guest pid: > > the users of container guest only knew the pid inside containers. > > This will bring obstacle for trouble shooting. > > > > This patch adds two fields: > > > > NStgid and NSpid. > > > > a) In init_pid_ns, nothing changed; > > > > b) In one pidns, will tell the pid inside containers: > > NStgid: 1628 9 3 > > NSpid: 1628 9 3 > > ** Process id is 1628 in level 0, 9 in level 1, 3 in level 2. > > > > c) If pidns is nested, it depends on which pidns are you in. > > NStgid: 9 3 > > NSpid: 9 3 > > ** Views from level 1 Thanks, -- Vasily Kulikov http://www.openwall.com - bringing security into open computing environments -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
