From: ebiederm@...ssion.com (Eric W. Biederman) Date: Sat, 08 Sep 2007 15:15:34 -0600 > > This is the basic infrastructure needed to support network > namespaces. This infrastructure is: > - Registration functions to support initializing per network > namespace data when a network namespaces is created or destroyed. > > - struct net. The network namespace data structure. > This structure will grow as variables are made per network > namespace but this is the minimal starting point. > > - Functions to grab a reference to the network namespace. > I provide both get/put functions that keep a network namespace > from being freed.

Biederman <ebiederm@...ssion.com> I realize there are some discussions about naming and fixing some races, but I applied this anyways so we can make some forward progress. We can make name changes and fixes on top of this initial work. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
