Hello Mailing list, i have a problem passing a file descriptor from one process to another. I have two processes A and B. Both are running in different network and filesystem namespaces, so it is impossible to use unix domain sockets or net sockets to pass a file descriptor from process A to process B. The usage of STREAMS is also impossible, as you can see in http://fixunix.com/unix/84093-streams-pipes-ioctl-i_sendfd.html [quotation begin] Linux doesn't have STREAMS, which are the System V way of doing this task. ... [quotation end] Are there additional possibilities for file descriptor passing like using a named pipe or something like that or does anybody know a good workaround for this problem ? Thank you very much !!
