These limits are set via /proc/sys/user/ +sysctls on a per user namespace basis and are applicable to all users in that +namespace. Therefore, the limits are the same for every user in a user +namespace. + +Each user has their own set of user namespace counters. Once a user creates a +new user namespace, every new object created inside that namespace is also +charged to the user. That means that a user is limited by their user namespace +limits, as well as the limits in their parent user namespaces. + + > cat /proc/813/userns_counts + user_namespaces 101000 1 + pid_namespaces 101000 1 + ipc_namespaces 101000 4 + net_namespaces 101000 2 + mnt_namespaces 101000 5 + mnt_namespaces 100000 1 + +The meanings of the columns are as follows, from left to right: + + Name Object name + UID User ID + Usage Current usage ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Configuring procfs -- 2.5.5 _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
