+3.11 /proc/<pid>/userns_counts - User namespace counters
+---------------------------------------------------------
+
+This file provides current usage of user namespace counters.
+
+User namespace counters is a feature that allows to limit the number of various
+kernel objects a user can create. These limits are set via /proc/sys/user/
+sysctls on a per user namespace basis and are applicable to all users in that
+namespace. Therefore, the limits are the same for every user in a user
+namespace.
+
+Each user has their own set of user namespace counters. Once a user creates a
+new user namespace, every new object created inside that namespace is also
+charged to the user. That means that a user is limited by their user namespace
+limits, as well as the limits in their parent user namespaces.
