[Devel] [PATCH 1/1] RFC: Containerized syslog (Take II)

Jean-Marc Pigeon jmp at safe.ca
Tue Feb 16 07:24:17 PST 2010


	Containerized syslog is now part of nsproxy.
	A new flag CLONE_SYSLOG allow to unshare
	syslog area.
	Main containerized syslog purpose is to allow
	full container not to leak or compromise
	hosts syslog data.
