Subject: [iproute PATCHv2 0/2] Netns performance improvements
Date: Tue,  5 Jul 2016 16:51:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1467730280-17493-1-git-send-email-phil@nwl.cc> (raw)

Stress-testing OpenStack Neutron revealed poor performance of 'ip netns'
when dealing with a high amount of namespaces. The cause of this lies in
the combination of how iproute2 mounts NETNS_RUN_DIR and the netns files
therein and the fact that systemd makes all mount points of the system
shared.

Changes since v1:
- Added Suggested-by tag to patches.

Phil Sutter (2):
  ipnetns: Move NETNS_RUN_DIR into it's own propagation group
  ipnetns: Make netns mount points private
