user namespaces config option
type: item
description: Hi, Cedric, Serge. I have noticed, that you have removed config options for uts and ipc namespaces but kept one for user namespace. What's the policy about what namespaces should have config option? I thought, that the only code that is worth having under option is clone/destroy one to save .text size for people who don't need them (embedded).

This was the case of uts and ipc ns. user ns is far from complete and should be kept experimental.
