Guys, can we stick with something simplier? I could use hashes here (again?!) or
even aes encoded pointers extended to 128 bits as it was proposed too. But
maybe we can live with something more simplier?
We could export EQ/NE for regular users (which might be usefull for less
frequently used objects such as namespaces I guess). And GT/LT for root
only.
Does it look better? Does the change log tells enough?

Subject: [RFC] syscalls, x86: Add __NR_kcmp syscall v3
While doing the checkpoint-restore in the userspace one need to determine
whether various kernel objects (like mm_struct-s of file_struct-s) are shared
between tasks and restore this state.
The 2nd step can be solved by using appropriate CLONE_ flags and the unshare
syscall, while there's currently no ways for solving the 1st one.
One of the ways for checking whether two tasks share e.g. mm_struct is to
provide some mm_struct ID of a task to its proc file, but showing such
info considered to be not that good for security reasons.
Thus after some debates we end up in conclusion that using that named
'comparision' syscall might be the best candidate. So here is it --
__NR_kcmp.
It takes up to 5 agruments - the pids of the two tasks (which
characteristics should be compared), the comparision type and
(in case of comparision of files) two file descriptors.
Only two results are supported at moment -- if the objects
are the same or not. So there is no way to restore in-memory
order of objects.
At moment only x86 is supported.
v2: Drop ordered results.

Subject: [RFC] syscalls, x86: Report objects ordering for CAP_SYS_ADMIN in __NR_kcmp syscall
For checkpoint-restore procedure we would like to increase performance
over comparision test if huge number of file descriptros is involved,
i.e. being able to re-create at least parial order of kernel objects
compared.
Thus __NR_kcmp syscall is extended to return values representing
the objects order ("greater" and "less").
Such approach allows us to sort file descriptors and don't compare
every file with every other, increasing performance from O(n^2)
to about O(NlogN).
In a sake of safety this interface is allowed for CAP_SYS_ADMIN
only. A regular user still get EQ/NE results only.
