Hi floogy,

Please do not worry, I believe it's falshe alerts.

Let me explain:
each process inside VE have 2 pids -- "virtualized" and system".
Inside VE "virtualized" pids are used, "system" are used in hardware node conext. As an example: init process in each VE have pid=1 visible inside VE and "real" pid on HW node.

Proc inside VE shows "virtualized" pids, but allows to use "system" pids too, therefore "system" pids looks as hidden.

Also I would note that you can find some more details in
"PID namespaces in the 2.6.24 kernel" article on LWN
http://lwn.net/Articles/259217/

Currently this article is available to LWN subscribers only and will become freely available on November 29, 2007.

thank you,
Vasily Averin
