OK, so you're saying that there's no way for userspace to tell that a set of tasks share an nsproxy other than exporting that nsproxy? > Perhaps instead of nsproxy_equal() we could use an 'nsproxy_objref' > to know a-priori that it is common, and save the "compare-and-swap" > phase altogether. Sure, that's workable. The important thing is that it is an optimization that can be left for later. -- Dave _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
