Well. Definitely, the kernel can't be compiled with this patch applied,
this seems to be against the rules...

So. The task has a single (PIDTYPE_MAX) pid no matter how many namespaces
can see it, and "struct pid" has an array of numbers for each namespace.

Still I can't understand why do we need upid->ns, can't we kill it?
Suppose we add "struct pid_namespace *parent_ns" to "struct pid_namespace",
init_pid_ns.parent_ns == NULL.

Now,

struct upid {
int nr;
struct hlist_node pid_chain;
};

struct pid
{
atomic_t count;
struct hlist_head tasks[PIDTYPE_MAX];
struct rcu_head rcu;
struct pid_namespace *active_ns;
struct upid numbers[0];
};

We populate pid->numbers in "reverse" order, so that pid->numbers[0] lives
in pid->active_ns.

Now, for example,

void free_pid(struct pid *pid)
{
struct pid_namespace *ns;
unsigned long flags;
int i;

spin_lock_irqsave(&pidmap_lock, flags);
for (i = 0, ns = pid->active_ns; ns; i++, ns = ns->parent_ns)
hlist_del_rcu(&pid->numbers[i].pid_chain);
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&pidmap_lock, flags);

for (i = 0, ns = pid->active_ns; ns; i++, ns = ns->parent_ns)
free_pidmap(ns, pid->numbers[i].nr);

call_rcu(&pid->rcu, delayed_put_pid);
}

Possible?

Oleg.
