Thinking... Ok, I'm not sure this is 100% safe in the target tree, but
the long-term correct way probably isn't yet implemented in the net-
tree. Eventually you will want to:
net_ns = NULL;
rcu_read_lock();
tsk = find_task_by_pid(); /* or _pidns equiv? */
nsproxy = task_nsproxy(tsk);
if (nsproxy)
net_ns = get_net(nsproxy->net_ns);
rcu_read_unlock;
What you have here is probably unsafe if tsk is the last task pointing
to it's nsproxy and it does an unshare, bc unshare isn't protected by
task_lock, and you're not rcu_dereferencing tsk->nsproxy (which
task_nsproxy does). At one point we floated a patch to reuse the same
nsproxy in that case which would prevent you having to worry about it,
but that isn't being done in -mm now so i doubt it's in -net.
