[RFC 0/4] reduce pid_namespace footprint when not configured

From: Rasmus Villemoes
Date: Wed Sep 30 2015 - 16:50:46 EST


A few suggestions for reducing the footprint of pid namespaces when
CONFIG_PID_NS=n. The savings are admittedly not huge:

$ scripts/bloat-o-meter /tmp/vmlinux.master vmlinux
add/remove: 0/7 grow/shrink: 30/25 up/down: 368/-1032 (-664)

Rasmus Villemoes (4):
pid_namespace: remove ->level and ->parent for !CONFIG_PID_NS
pid_namespace: remove .kref field for !CONFIG_PID_NS
pid_namespace: make pid_nr_ns and pid_vnr static inlines for
!CONFIG_PID_NS
pid_namespace: disable_pid_allocation is unused for !CONFIG_PID_NS
