Re: [PATCH v2 3/3] net: make net namespace sysctls belong to container's owner

Hi David,

If net namespace is attached to a user namespace let's make container's
root owner of sysctls affecting said network namespace instead of global
root.

This also allows us to clean up net_ctl_permissions() because we do not
need to fudge permissions anymore for the container's owner since it now
owns the objects in question.

I was looking at linux-next today, and I noticed that, when you merged
my patch, you basically reverted the following commit:

commit d6e0d306449bcb5fa3c80e7a3edf11d45abf9ae9

    net: Use ns_capable_noaudit() when determining net sysctl permissions

    The capability check should not be audited since it is only being used
    to determine the inode permissions. A failed check does not indicate a
    violation of security policy but, when an LSM is enabled, a denial audit
    message was being generated.

    The denial audit message caused confusion for some application authors
    because root-running Go applications always triggered the denial. To
    prevent this confusion, the capability check in net_ctl_permissions() is
    switched to the noaudit variant.
