When restarting, if the process only needs 2 pids bc it is L1, current behavior is to return -EINVAL. I have this check in copy_target_pids(): + if (num_pids < 0 || num_pids > nesting) + return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL); Is it ok to return -EINVAL when num_pids > nesting ? _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
