Currently, when an application gets netnsid from the kernel (for example as the result of RTM_GETLINK call on one end of the veth pair), it's not much useful. There's no reliable way to get to the netns fd from the netnsid, nor does any kernel API accept netnsid. Extend the RTM_GETLINK call to also accept netnsid. It will operate on the netns with the given netnsid in such case. Of course, the calling process needs to have enough capabilities in the target name space; for now, require CAP_NET_ADMIN. This can be relaxed in the future. To signal to the calling process that the kernel understood the new IFLA_IF_NETNSID attribute in the query, it will include it in the response. This is needed to detect older kernels, as they will just ignore IFLA_IF_NETNSID and query in the current name space. This patch implemetns IFLA_IF_NETNSID only for get and dump. For set operations, this can be extended later. Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
