The patch titled Subject: kernel/taskstats.c: make taskstats available via genetlink per namespace has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kernel-make-taskstats-available-via-genetlink-per-namespace.patch This patch was dropped because it was nacked ------------------------------------------------------ From: xu xin <cgel.zte@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: kernel/taskstats.c: make taskstats available via genetlink per namespace Currently, the application getdelays cannot get taskstats in a net namespace. The returned error is just like the following: -sh-4.4# ps -ef | tail -5 root 186 2 0 09:23 ? 00:00:00 [kworker/2:1H] root 187 2 0 09:23 ? 00:00:00 [kworker/0:2-eve] root 190 183 0 09:23 ? 00:00:00 -sh root 198 190 0 09:25 ? 00:00:00 ps -ef root 199 190 0 09:25 ? 00:00:00 tail -5 -sh-4.4# -sh-4.4# ./getdelays -d -p 186 -v print delayacct stats ON debug on Error getting family id, errno 0 As more and more applications are deployed in containers like Docker, it is necessary to support getdelays to be used in net namespace. Taskstats is safe for use per namespace as genetlink checks the capability of namespace message by netlink_ns_capable(). Make taskstats available via genetlink per namespace.
