Thank you From init pid namespace How we can access the child pid-namespace PID's? <div class="gmail_quote">On 29-Apr-2016 7:33 pm, "Richard Guy Briggs" <<a href="mailto:rgb@redhat.com">rgb@redhat.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">On 16/04/29, Deepika Sundar wrote: > Thank You for the valuable Response RGB. > > As you mentioned in the above statement is what I was looking for, "There > is a mapping from the PID in the initial PID namespace to its PID in a > child PID namespace". > As per your context, Is it initial PID namespace is the one which is get > created in the "HOST"? If I understand your question, the first namespace of any type that is created is the initial namespace. This set of 6 different namespace types are the default that are created on a newly booted kernel. > Please provide me details about how to enter into INIT-PID namespace to get > the mappings of child PID Namespace. Generally, the init process (yes, the term "init" is a bit overloaded here...) with PID 1 in the initial PID namespace is the starting point for creating all other processes. (Some distributions have switched over from using "init" to using "systemd" in this role.) If you are already that process or you are a process that is a child of that process and still in all the initial namespaces, you are already there. If you are a process that is in a child PID namespace, you can't see any parent or peer namespaces.
