[RFC patch 0/2] posix mqueue namespace (v11)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



(Ok I don't know what the actual version number is - it's
high but 11 is probably safe)

Cedric and Nadia took several approaches to making posix
message queues per-namespace.  I ended up mamking some
deep changes so am not retaining their Signed-off-by:s
on this version, but this is definately very much based
on work by both of them.

Patch 2 hopefully explains my approach.  Briefly,

	1. sysv and posix ipc are both under CLONE_NEWIPC
	2. the mqueue sb is per-ipc-namespace

So to create a new ipc namespace, you would

	unshare(CLONE_NEWIPC|CLONE_NEWNS);
	umount /dev/mqueue
	mount -t mqueue mqueue /dev/mqueue

It's perfectly valid to do vfs operations on files
in another ipc_namespace's /dev/mqueue, but any use
of mq_open(3) and friends will act in your own ipc_ns.

thanks,
