It is a hair more code to use proc files but nothing worth counting.

Probably the biggest thing I am aware of right now in my development
tree is in getting uids to pass properly between unix domain sockets
I would up writing this cred_to_ucred function.

Serge can you take a look and check my logic, and do you have
any idea of where we should place something like pid_vnr but
for the uid namespace?

void cred_to_ucred(struct pid *pid, const struct cred *cred,
		   struct ucred *ucred)
{
	ucred->pid = pid_vnr(pid);
	ucred->uid = ucred->gid = -1;
	if (cred) {
		struct user_namespace *cred_ns = cred->user->user_ns;
		struct user_namespace *current_ns = current_user_ns();
		struct user_namespace *tmp;

		if (likely(cred_ns == current_ns)) {
			ucred->uid = cred->euid;
			ucred->gid = cred->egid;
		} else {
			/* Is cred in a child user namespace */
			tmp = cred_ns;
			do {
				tmp = tmp->creator->user_ns;
				if (tmp == current_ns) {
					ucred->uid = tmp->creator->uid;
					ucred->gid = overflowgid;
					return;
				}
			} while (tmp != &init_user_ns);

			/* Is cred the creator of my user namespace,
			 * or the creator of one of it's parents?
			 */
			for( tmp = current_ns; tmp != &init_user_ns;
			     tmp = tmp->creator->user_ns) {
				if (cred->user == tmp->creator) {
					ucred->uid = 0;
					ucred->gid = 0;
					return;
				}
			}

			/* No user namespace relationship so no mapping */
			ucred->uid = overflowuid;
			ucred->gid = overflowgid;
		}
	}
}
