Subject: [PATCH iproute2-next 1/4] namespace: Add function to return fd for netns by pid
Date: Thu, 7 May 2026 09:08:32 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260507150836.28105-2-dsahern@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260507150836.28105-1-dsahern@kernel.org>
From: David Ahern <dahern@nvidia.com>
Add netns_get_fd_pid - verifies string is an integer,
then returns an fd to /proc/$pid/ns/net.
