Subject: [PATCH bpf 2/4] nsfs: add an ioctl to discover the network namespace cookie
Date: Wed, 10 Feb 2021 12:04:23 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210210120425.53438-3-lmb@cloudflare.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210210120425.53438-1-lmb@cloudflare.com>

Network namespaces have a globally unique non-zero identifier aka a
cookie, in line with socket cookies. Add an ioctl to retrieve the
cookie from user space without going via BPF.
