The patch titled user ns: prepare copy_tree, copy_mnt, and their callers to handle errs has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is user-ns-prepare-copy_tree-copy_mnt-and-their-callers-to-handle-errs.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: user ns: prepare copy_tree, copy_mnt, and their callers to handle errs With shareduserns and non-shareduserns mounts, it will be possible for clone_mnt to return -EPERM if a namespace tries to bind mount a non-shareduserns vfsmnt from another user namespace. But currently they only return NULL, which is interpreted as -ENOMEM. Update the callers to handle other errors. Signed-off-by: Serge E.
