18 * task_active_pid_ns. The pid namespace here is the

21 * 'count' is the number of tasks holding a reference.
22 * The count for each namespace, then, will be the number
23 * of nsproxies pointing to it, not the number of tasks.
24 *
25 * The nsproxy is shared by tasks which share all namespaces.
26 * As soon as a single namespace is cloned or unshared, the
27 * nsproxy is copied.

40 * the namespaces access rules are:
41 *
42 * 1. only current task is allowed to change tsk->nsproxy pointer or
43 * any pointer on the nsproxy itself
44 *
45 * 2. when accessing (i.e. reading) current task's namespaces - no
46 * precautions should be taken - just dereference the pointers
47 *
48 * 3. the access to other task namespaces is performed like this
49 * rcu_read_lock();
