[PATCH] audit: Send replies in the proper network namespace.

Eric W. Biederman ebiederm at xmission.com
Sat Mar 1 04:36:55 UTC 2014


In perverse cases of file descriptor passing the current network
namespace of a process and the network namespace of a socket used by
that socket may differ.  Therefore use the network namespace of the
appropiate socket to ensure replies always go to the appropiate
socket.

This is an incremental change on top of my previous patch to guarantee
that replies always happen in the appropriate network namespace.
