    Subject[PATCH 00/23] proc: Introduce /proc/namespaces/ directory to expose namespaces lineary
    From
    Date
    Currently, there is no a way to list or iterate all or subset of namespaces
    in the system. Some namespaces are exposed in /proc/[pid]/ns/ directories,
    but some also may be as open files, which are not attached to a process.
    When a namespace open fd is sent over unix socket and then closed, it is
    impossible to know whether the namespace exists or not.

    Also, even if namespace is exposed as attached to a process or as open file,
    iteration over /proc/*/ns/* or /proc/*/fd/* namespaces is not fast, because
    this multiplies at tasks and fds number.

    This patchset introduces a new /proc/namespaces/ directory, which exposes
    subset of permitted namespaces in linear view:

    # ls /proc/namespaces/ -l
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'cgroup:[4026531835]' -> 'cgroup:[4026531835]'
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'ipc:[4026531839]' -> 'ipc:[4026531839]'
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'mnt:[4026531840]' -> 'mnt:[4026531840]'
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'mnt:[4026531861]' -> 'mnt:[4026531861]'
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'mnt:[4026532133]' -> 'mnt:[4026532133]'
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'mnt:[4026532134]' -> 'mnt:[4026532134]'
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'mnt:[4026532135]' -> 'mnt:[4026532135]'
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'mnt:[4026532136]' -> 'mnt:[4026532136]'
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'net:[4026531993]' -> 'net:[4026531993]'
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'pid:[4026531836]' -> 'pid:[4026531836]'
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'time:[4026531834]' -> 'time:[4026531834]'
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'user:[4026531837]' -> 'user:[4026531837]'
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jul 29 16:50 'uts:[4026531838]' -> 'uts:[4026531838]'

    Namespace ns is exposed, in case of its user_ns is permitted from /proc's pid_ns.
    I.e., /proc is related to pid_ns, so in /proc/namespace we show only a ns, which is

    in_userns(pid_ns->user_ns, ns->user_ns).

    In case of ns is a user_ns:

    in_userns(pid_ns->user_ns, ns).

    The patchset follows this steps:

    1)A generic counter in ns_common is introduced instead of separate
    counters for every ns type (net::count, uts_namespace::kref,
    user_namespace::count, etc). Patches [1-8];
    2)Patch [9] introduces IDR to link and iterate alive namespaces;
    3)Patch [10] is refactoring;
    4)Patch [11] actually adds /proc/namespace directory and fs methods;
    5)Patches [12-23] make every namespace to use the added methods
    and to appear in /proc/namespace directory.

    This may be usefull to write effective debug utils (say, fast build
    of networks topology) and checkpoint/restore software.
