Now of course it also provides the teensiest reduction in # instructions since every clone results in just one reference count inc for the nsproxy rather than one for each namespace. > containers patches uses just a single pointer in the task_struct, and > all tasks in the same set of containers (across all hierarchies) will > share a single container_group object, which holds the actual pointers > to container state. Yes, that's why this consolidation doesn't make sense to me. Especially considering again that we will now have nsproxies pointing to containers pointing to... nsproxies. > Effectively, container_group is to container as nsproxy is to namespace. > > Paul _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
