It is expected behaviour of container, as PIDs in other namespaces will 
always be shown as 0.
So here, these 0s are from system ns (probably, as you had only system 
ns and delta ns).
I have been trying to fix for "for_each_process" macro related stuff wrt

Yes. and it is doing already. Only problem is unwanted 0s. Loot at the 
bottom of list you get
while cat. you see numbers other than 0,which are container processes.
