I really don't like that. AFAICS, the root of the evil is that fscking nsproxy keeps a pointer to mnt_namespace while all it really needs to know about is the address of ns_common field embedded into it. Let's see... fs/namespace.c:697: struct mnt_namespace *ns = current->nsproxy->mnt_ns; fs/namespace.c:770: return mnt->mnt_ns == current->nsproxy->mnt_ns; fs/namespace.c:1502: return ns_capable(current->nsproxy->mnt_ns->user_ns, CAP_SYS_ADMIN); fs/namespace.c:1587: return current->nsproxy->mnt_ns->seq >= mnt_ns->seq; fs/namespace.c:2293: struct user_namespace *user_ns = current->nsproxy->mnt_ns->user_ns; fs/namespace.c:2961: touch_mnt_namespace(current->nsproxy->mnt_ns); fs/namespace.c:3003: init_task.nsproxy->mnt_ns = ns; fs/namespace.c:3101: ns_root.mnt = ¤t->nsproxy->mnt_ns->root->mnt; fs/namespace.c:3119: struct mnt_namespace *ns = current->nsproxy->mnt_ns; fs/namespace.c:3159: ns = &nsproxy->mnt_ns->ns; fs/namespace.c:3187: put_mnt_ns(nsproxy->mnt_ns); fs/namespace.c:3188: nsproxy->mnt_ns = mnt_ns; fs/pnode.c:282: user_ns = current->nsproxy->mnt_ns->user_ns; fs/proc_namespace.c:246: if (!nsp || !nsp->mnt_ns) { fs/proc_namespace.c:251: ns = nsp->mnt_ns; include/linux/nsproxy.h:33: struct mnt_namespace *mnt_ns; kernel/nsproxy.c:37: .mnt_ns = NULL, kernel/nsproxy.c:70: new_nsp->mnt_ns = copy_mnt_ns(flags, tsk->nsproxy->mnt_ns, user_ns, new_fs); kernel/nsproxy.c:71: if (IS_ERR(new_nsp->mnt_ns)) { kernel/nsproxy.c:72: err = PTR_ERR(new_nsp->mnt_ns); kernel/nsproxy.c:113: if (new_nsp->mnt_ns) kernel/nsproxy.c:114: put_mnt_ns(new_nsp->mnt_ns); kernel/nsproxy.c:160: if (ns->mnt_ns) kernel/nsproxy.c:161: put_mnt_ns(ns->mnt_ns); OK, so we need a) add in fs/mount.h static inline struct mnt_namespace *current_mnt_ns(void) { return current->nsproxy->mnt_ns; } and replace a lot of open-coded instances. b) lift to_mnt_ns() into fs/mount.h (as static inline) c) switch put_mnt_ns() to struct ns_common *, replacing put_mnt_ns(ns) with put_mnt_ns(&ns->ns) and using to_mnt_ns() in the body to recover the original. d) make copy_mnt_ns() take and return struct ns_common * (same treatment as for put_mnt_ns() in (c); replace new_nsp->mnt_ns = copy_mnt_ns(flags, tsk->nsproxy->mnt_ns, user_ns, new_fs); if (IS_ERR(new_nsp->mnt_ns)) { err = PTR_ERR(new_nsp->mnt_ns); goto out_ns; } with ns = copy_mnt_ns(flags, &tsk->nsproxy->mnt_ns->ns, user_ns, new_fs); if (IS_ERR(ns)) { err = PTR_ERR(ns); goto out_ns; } new_nsp->mnt_ns = to_mnt_ns(ns); e) replace struct mnt_namespace *mnt_ns with struct ns_common *__mnt_ns in nsproxy.h, deal with users of mnt_ns by * everywhere in the tree replace put_mnt_ns(&...->mnt_ns->ns) with put_mnt_ns(...->__mnt_ns) (i.e. modify the lines modified by (c) again). * in fs/namespace.c replace init_task.nsproxy->mnt_ns = ns; with init_task.nsproxy->__mnt_ns = &ns->ns; replace ns = &nsproxy->mnt_ns->ns; with ns = nsproxy->__mnt_ns; replace nsproxy->mnt_ns = mnt_ns; with nsproxy>__mnt_ns = &mnt_ns->ns; * in fs/proc_namespace.c replace ns = nsp->mnt_ns; with ns = to_mnt_ns(nsp->__mnt_ns); and if (!nsp || !nsp->mnt_ns) { with if (!nsp || !nsp->__mnt_ns) { * in kernel/nsproxy.c: replace ns = copy_mnt_ns(flags, &tsk->nsproxy->mnt_ns->ns, user_ns, new_fs); added in (d) with ns = copy_mnt_ns(flags, tsk->nsproxy->__mnt_ns, user_ns, new_fs); and new_nsp->mnt_ns = to_mnt_ns(ns); with new_nsp->__mnt_ns = ns; The rest of mnt_ns in that file get replaced by __mnt_ns. * in current_mnt_ns() replace ...->mnt_ns with to_mnt_ns(...->__mnt_ns) Do you want me to push such a series in vfs.git? After such 5 commits we have no pointers to struct mnt_namespace in nsproxy.h *and* no need for your patches to dig into ->mnt_ns->ns - we already have that as ->__mnt_ns. -- 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/
