Hi, Any comment on this last version? Any chance to be merged?I've got a use case for this: I went to one of the Graphene talks in Edinburgh and it struck me that we seem to keep reinventing the type of sandboxing that qemu-user already does. However if you want to do an x86 on x86 sandbox, you can't currently use the binfmt_misc mechanism because that has you running *every* binary on the system emulated. Doing it per user namespace fixes this problem and allows us to at least cut down on all the pointless duplication.
Waaaaaait. What? qemu-user does not do "sandboxing". qemu-user makes your code slower and *LESS* secure. As far as I know, qemu-user is only intended for purposes like development and testing.
