[patch 2/4] Network namespaces: cleanup of dev_base list use

Andrey Savochkin
2006-06-26T09:53:04Z

CONFIG_NET_NS and net_namespace structure are introduced.
List of network devices is made per-namespace.
Each namespace gets its own loopback device.

Task's net_namespace pointer is not incorporated into nsproxy structure,
since current namespace changes temporarily for processing of packets
in softirq.
