16 * A structure to contain pointers to all per-process
17 * namespaces - fs (mount), uts, network, sysvipc, etc.
19 * The pid namespace is an exception -- it's accessed using
20 * task_active_pid_ns. The pid namespace here is the
21 * namespace that children will use.
23 * 'count' is the number of tasks holding a reference.
24 * The count for each namespace, then, will be the number
25 * of nsproxies pointing to it, not the number of tasks.
27 * The nsproxy is shared by tasks which share all namespaces.

73 * when changing tsk->nsproxy.
75 * 2. when accessing (i.e. reading) current task's namespaces - no
76 * precautions should be taken - just dereference the pointers
