Subject: [PATCH RFC v3 20/90] cgroup: root a cgroup namespace at a given cgroup
Date: Thu, 05 Nov 2026 14:57:11 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261105-b4-cells-v3-20-bc9095937a84@toxicpanda.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261105-b4-cells-v3-0-bc9095937a84@toxicpanda.com>
copy_cgroup_ns() roots the new cgroup namespace at the cgroup of the
caller. The builder of a cell is not in the budget of the cell and never
will be.
Add cgroup_cell_ns(), which creates a cgroup namespace that is rooted at a
given cgroup, and cgroup_cell_cset(), which finds the css_set that it
needs.
