[RFC PATCH v4 12/12] KEYS: exec request-key within the requesting task's init namespace

From: Ian Kent
Date: Mon Mar 16 2015 - 22:46:36 EST


From: Ian Kent <ikent@xxxxxxxxxx>

Containerized request key helper callbacks need the ability to execute
a binary in a container's context. To do this calling an in kernel
equivalent of setns(2) should be sufficient since the user mode helper
execution kernel thread ultimately calls do_execve().
