[PATCH] IPC namespace core
This patch set allows to unshare IPCs and have a private set of IPC objects (sem, shm, msg) inside namespace. Basically, it is another building block of containers functionality. This patch implements core IPC namespace changes: - ipc_namespace structure - new config option CONFIG_IPC_NS - adds CLONE_NEWIPC flag - unshare support [clg@fr.ibm.com: small fix for unshare of ipc namespace] [akpm@osdl.org: build fix] Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelianov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Kirill Korotaev <dev@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Cedric Le Goater <clg@fr.ibm.com> Cc: "Eric W.
