Patch initially submitted by Benjamin Thery, provided again here for reference. This patch adds in 'id' member to struct net. This member contains an IDA ID. The id is allocated at netns creation. This 'id' will be used to reference network namespaces without the need for a pid. --- include/net/net_namespace.h | 2 ++ net/core/net_namespace.c | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 26 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
