Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux

Carlos Neira says: ==================== Currently bpf_get_current_pid_tgid(), is used to do pid filtering in bcc's scripts but this helper returns the pid as seen by the root namespace which is fine when a bcc script is not executed inside a container. When the process of interest is inside a container, pid filtering will not work if bpf_get_current_pid_tgid() is used. This helper addresses this limitation returning the pid as it's seen by the current namespace where the script is executing. In the future different pid_ns files may belong to different devices, according to the discussion between Eric Biederman and Yonghong in 2017 Linux plumbers conference. To address that situation the helper requires inum and dev_t from /proc/self/ns/pid. This helper has the same use cases as bpf_get_current_pid_tgid() as it can be used to do pid filtering even inside a container. ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
