Thank you for thinking about time namespaces. I looked at this patch quickly and I would suggest to move a termination signal out of flags. I think we can add a separate field (exit_signal) into clone_args. Does it make sense? For me, exit_signal in flags always looked weird...I agree - the child signal in flags was always just a "it fits" kind of thing, and that was obviously true back then, but is not true now.
(Traveling until Monday, so sorry for delayed responses.) Yip, I agree that this is a good idea (answered Andrei's mail just now saying the same thing). I'll send out a new version of the patch with these changes added next week. Christian
