Cgroup ids are resolved in the global scope. That may be needed sometime (in future) but currently it violates virtual view provided through cgroup namespaces. There are currently following users of the resolution: - fc_appid_store - bpf_iter_attach_cgroup - mem_cgroup_get_from_ino None of the is a called on behalf of kernel but the resolution is made with proper userspace context, hence the default to current->nsproxy makes sens. (This doesn't rule out cgroup_get_from_id with cgroup NS parameter in the future.) Since cgroup ids are defined on v2 hierarchy only, we simply check existence in the cgroup namespace by looking at ancestry on the default hierarchy.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
