Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] nsproxy: support CLONE_NEWTIME with setns()
Date: Mon, 6 Jul 2020 17:49:08 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200706154912.3248030-1-christian.brauner@ubuntu.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200625090618.GC151695@gmail.com>
Hey,
After having synced with Andrei with the ARM time namespace support
patchset we've decided to make vdso_join_timens() a function that cannot
fail but not yet change its return type so the changes for ARM can
proceed independently. We will simply have a follow-up patch right after
these changes land during the v5.9 merge window that changes
vdso_join_timens() from returning an int to void.
So far setns() with pidfds was missing time namespace support. This was
partially due to it simply not being implemented but also because
vdso_join_timens() could still fail which made switching to multiple
namespaces atomically problematic. This series first fixes
vdso_join_timens() to never fail, introduces timens_commit() and finally
adds CLONE_NEWTIME support for setns().
Thanks!
Christian
