Hi, Dave! This set adds namespace support for routing tables & rules manipulation in the different namespaces. So, one could create a namespace and setup IPv4 routing there how he wants. After this patch user will have the ability to configure and observe its own isolated set of routing rules/tables, but they all will be unused. I.e. routing decisions inside the network stack are still made based on the init_net's rules. The reason for doing so is to have something self-consistent and not too huge :) The sequence is the following: - viritualize generic FIB rules operations - change IPv4 FIB initialization sequence - virtualize FIB tables access After this, the 'ip' utility and the /proc interface will start working correctly inside a namespace, while the 'route' utility will not, because IP sockets currently cannot be created in non-init namespace. Changes from v1: - fixed spacing in the fib_rules.h - improved patch description by the suggestion of Daniel Lezcano _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
