General direction has been laid out by Al, but it would be good to
discuss the details.

I plan to work on this after overlayfs is "done".

Thanks,
Miklos

Hi, Miklos,

What's the background on this? Is there a mailing list thread?

Miklos,

WRT the suggestion to use a netlink socket that was made in LSF, be aware that
netlink sockets are per network-ns and mounts as you know are per mount-ns.
That may be a problem when setting up a mount from non root network-ns
or maybe not? - I am not sure.

Amir.

Netlink TLV's may be used over an ordinary file descriptor and that
seems much more reasonable that netlink if the netlink style of
marshalling arguments is desired.
