[patch -mm 4/4] add child reaper to pid_namespace

Cedric Le Goater clg at fr.ibm.com
Fri Sep 8 10:00:08 PDT 2006


Add per-pid-space child-reaper. This is needed so processes are reaped within
the same pid space and do not spill over to the parent pid space. Its also
needed so containers preserve existing semantic that pid == 1 would reap
orphaned children. 

This is based on Eric Biederman's patch: http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/285
