Thanks for looking at this. What you have here is the basic boilerplate for any generic container subsystem. I realise that my current containers patch has some incompatibilities with the way that nsproxy wants to work. > > A few things we'll want to address: > > 1.

The current model is that rmdir fails if there are any processes still in the container; so you'd have to kill processes by looking for pids in the "tasks" info file. This was behaviour inherited from the cpusets code; I'd be open to making this more configurable (e.g. specifying that rmdir should try to kill any remaining tasks). > > 2.

Right - the way to do this would probably be some kind of "container_clone()" function that duplicates the properties of the current container in a child, and immediately moves the current process into that container. > > 3.

If you want to be able to attach to different namespaces separately, then possibly they should be separate container subsystems?
