| |
When user send signal from (say) init namespace to any task in a sub namespace the siginfo struct must not carry the sender's pid value, as this value may refer to some task in the destination namespace and thus may confuse the application.
The consensus was to pretend in this case as if it is the kernel who sends the signal.
The pid_ns_accessible() call is introduced to check this pid-to-ns accessibility.
