The patch titled
pid namespaces: dynamic kmem cache allocator for pid namespaces
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
pid-namespaces-dynamic-kmem-cache-allocator-for-pid-namespaces.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: pid namespaces: dynamic kmem cache allocator for pid namespaces
From: Pavel Emelianov <xemul@xxxxxxxxxx>
Add kmem_cache to pid_namespace to allocate pids from.
Since both implementations expand the struct pid to carry more numerical
values each namespace should have separate cache to store pids of different
sizes.
Each kmem cache is name "pid_<NR>", where <NR> is the number of numerical ids
on the pid. Different namespaces with same level of nesting will have same
caches.
This patch has two FIXMEs that are to be fixed after we reach the consensus
about the struct pid itself.
The first one is that the namespace to free the pid from in free_pid() must be
taken from pid. Now the init_pid_ns is used.
The second FIXME is about the cache allocation. When we do know how long the
object will be then we'll have to calculate this size in create_pid_cachep.
Right now the sizeof(struct pid) value is used.
