From a7306ed8d94af729ecef8b6e37506a1c6fc14788 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrey Vagin Date: Tue, 6 Sep 2016 00:47:15 -0700 Subject: nsfs: add ioctl to get a parent namespace Pid and user namepaces are hierarchical. There is no way to discover parent-child relationships. In a future we will use this interface to dump and restore nested namespaces.
