[Devel] [PATCH net-next] [RFC] netns: enable cross-ve Unix sockets

[Denis V. Lunev]

This patch opens a way to connect via Unix socket from one namespace
to another if these sockets are opened via conventional filesystem
interface. Such approach allows to share important services between
namespaces in efficient way.

This breach is controlled by the means of shared filesystem, i.e. if
somebody really wants to isolate containers, he should start from
filesystem separation.
