Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 2/3] nsproxy: attach to namespaces via pidfds
Date: Mon, 04 May 2020 11:25:07 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87h7wvoefw.fsf@x220.int.ebiederm.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200504144141.3605533-3-christian.brauner@ubuntu.com> (Christian Brauner's message of "Mon, 4 May 2020 16:41:40 +0200")


I am not thrilled about treating nstype as a flags fields when it is not
currently.  It was my hope when I designed the interface that not
treating nstype as a flags field would save us from the problem of bits
running out.

That aside.  It would be very good if the default version of setting
everything from a pidfd would set the root directory from the process it
is copying everything else from.
