[PATCH 06/11] pidns: Don't allow new processes in a dead pid namespace.

From: Eric W. Biederman
Date: Fri Nov 16 2012 - 11:36:43 EST


From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Set nr_hashed to -1 just before we schedule the work to cleanup proc.
Test nr_hashed just before we hash a new pid and if nr_hashed is < 0
fail.

This guaranteees that processes never enter a pid namespaces after we
have cleaned up the state to support processes in a pid namespace.

Currently sending SIGKILL to all of the process in a pid namespace as
init exists gives us this guarantee but we need something a little
stronger to support unsharing and joining a pid namespace.
