Subject: [PATCH 01/10] Add a user_namespace as creator/owner of uts_namespace
Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2011 15:01:51 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110224150150.GA8262@mail.hallyn.com> (raw)
copy_process() handles CLONE_NEWUSER before the rest of the
namespaces. So in the case of clone(CLONE_NEWUSER|CLONE_NEWUTS)
the new uts namespace will have the new user namespace as its
owner. That is what we want, since we want root in that new
userns to be able to have privilege over it.
Changelog:
Feb 15: don't set uts_ns->user_ns if we didn't create
a new uts_ns.
Feb 23: Move extern init_user_ns declaration from
init/version.c to utsname.h.
