The London Perl and Raku Workshop takes place on 26th Oct 2024. If your company depends on Perl, please consider sponsoring and/or attending.

Changes for version 1.00 - 2016-08-17

  • Almost complete rewrite of the function!
  • Changed the interface, to setns(). Now instead of file descriptor we directly give it path to a namespace file. This removes the need to convert Perl FD into C FD.
  • Improved the error handling and now we catch all setns() errors
  • Replaced __NR_setns with SYS_setns. In order for the change to work I also changed the included headers
  • Simplified the setns() function in the XS code
  • Replaced the PPCODE with CODE and now I properly return the RETVAL from the XS code
  • Added new test for invalid path

Modules

Perl extension for switching the current prcoess namespace to another namespace pointed by a file descriptor.
