#linux kernel #namespace #源码

本文详述了Linux Kernel的Namespace机制，从task_struct结构开始，探讨了uts_namespace、ipc_namespace、mnt_namespace、pid_namespace和net_namespace。通过分析kernel、Namespace与Process的关系，以及在创建Namespace时的流程，如copy_process、copy_namespaces等关键步骤，帮助读者理解Docker容器的Namespace隔离原理。

学习一下linux kernel namespace的代码还是很有必要的，让你对docker容器的namespace隔离有更深的认识。我的源码分析，是基于Linux Kernel 4.4.19 (https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/patch-4.4.19.gz)版本的，由于namespace模块更新很少，因此其他相近版本之间雷同。User namespace由于与其他namespaces耦合在一起，比较难分析，我将在后续再作分析。

Kernel，Namespace，Process

Linux Namespace是一种Linux Kernel提供的资源隔离方案，提供Pid，Network，Ipc，Uts，Mount等资源的隔离，每个Namespace下的这些资源对于其他Namespace是不可见的。
注意，一个进程可以同时属于多个Namespace。Linux Kernel、Namespace、Process之间的关系可以用下图描述。
这里写图片描述

Begin with “task_struct”

As u know, Linux Namespace是用来做进程资源隔离的，那么在进程描述符中，一定有对应的Namespaces Info。
在linux-4.4.19/include/linux/sched.h #1380 定义task_struct结构体，该结构体是Linux Process完整信息的集合，其中就包含了一个指向Namespace结构体的指针nsproxy。

struct task_struct {
      ...
      /* namespaces */
      struct nsproxy *nsproxy;
      ...
}

nsproxy结构体的定义在linux-4.4.6/include/linux/nsproxy.h #29

/*
 * A structure to contain pointers to all per-process
 * namespaces - fs (mount), uts, network, sysvipc, etc.
 *
 * The pid namespace is an exception -- it's accessed using
 * task_active_pid_ns.  The pid namespace here is the
 * namespace that children will use.
 *
 * 'count' is the number of tasks holding a reference.
 * The count for each namespace, then, will be the number
 * of nsproxies pointing to it, not the number of tasks.
 *
 * The nsproxy is shared by tasks which share all namespaces.
 * As soon as a single namespace is cloned or unshared, the
 * nsproxy is copied.
 */
struct nsproxy {
      atomic_t count;
      struct uts_namespace *uts_ns;
      struct ipc_namespace *ipc_ns;
      struct mnt_namespace *mnt_ns;
      struct pid_namespace *pid_ns_for_children;
      struct net         *net_ns;
};

注意：正如如上代码注释写到，只要namespace被clone了，那么nsproxy就会跟着被clone。
同时，nsproxy.h中定义了一些对namespace的操作，包括copy_namespaces等。

 int copy_namespaces(unsigned long flags, struct task_struct *tsk);
void exit_task_namespaces(struct task_struct *tsk);
void switch_task_namespaces(struct task_struct *tsk, struct nsproxy *new);
void free_nsproxy(struct nsproxy *ns);
int unshare_nsproxy_namespaces(unsigned long, struct nsproxy **, struct cred *, struct fs_struct *);
int __init nsproxy_cache_init(void);
static inline void put_nsproxy(struct nsproxy *ns) { … }
static inline void get_nsproxy(struct nsproxy *ns) { … }
