[PATCH 18/33] containers implement namespace tracking subsystem

From: Paul Menage
Date: Mon Sep 17 2007 - 17:24:51 EST


From: "Serge E. Hallyn" <serue@xxxxxxxxxx>
(container->cgroup renaming by Paul Menage <menage@xxxxxxxxxx>)

When a task enters a new namespace via a clone() or unshare(), a new cgroup
is created and the task moves into it.

This version names cgroups which are automatically created using
cgroup_clone() as "node_<pid>" where pid is the pid of the unsharing or
cloned process. (Thanks Pavel for the idea) This is safe because if the
process unshares again, it will create

/cgroups/(...)/node_<pid>/node_<pid>

The only possibilities (AFAICT) for a -EEXIST on unshare are

1. pid wraparound
2. a process fails an unshare, then tries again.

Case 1 is unlikely enough that I ignore it (at least for now). In case 2, the
node_<pid> will be empty and can be rmdir'ed to make the subsequent unshare()
succeed.

Changelog:
Name cloned cgroups as "node_<pid>".
