From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Pavel Emelyanov Subject: [PATCH] Isolate the UTS namespace's domainname and hostname back Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2007 14:06:35 +0300 Message-ID: <4744113B.5010309@openvz.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org To: Andrew Morton Cc: Cedric Le Goater , Linux Kernel Mailing List , Linux Containers List-Id: containers.vger.kernel.org The commit commit 7d69a1f4a72b18876c99c697692b78339d491568 Author: Cedric Le Goater Date: Sun Jul 15 23:40:58 2007 -0700 remove CONFIG_UTS_NS and CONFIG_IPC_NS accidentally removed the code, that prevented the uts->hostname and uts->domainname values from being overwritten from another namespace. In other words, setting hostname/domainname via sysfs (echo xxx > /proc/sys/kernel/(host|domain)name) cased the new value to be set in init UTS namespace only. Return the isolation back.
