Hello, One of the contained processes on my system exposes its communication interface via an abstract socket. This socket is of the AF_UNIX family, with the particularity of being accessible via a name rather than a socket file with a path. This socket obeys to the network namespace rules.
Problem is that I need a few other containers to be able to connect to this socket. But at the same time, I require containers to have different network namespaces... Sharing regular AF_UNIX sockets was no big deal because I could just bind-mount the socket path into the various containers. But these abstract, pathless sockets are making it hard to share. A temporary solution has been to "whitelist" this specific socket name inside the kernel directly, right before the namespace equal check, but that's an ugly workaround. Any advice about elegantly sharing asbtract sockets between containers is gladly welcome :). Thanks!
