Jonathon Reinhart says: ==================== Ensuring net sysctl isolation This patchset is the result of an audit of /proc/sys/net to prove that it is safe to be mouted read-write in a container when a net namespace is in use. See [1]. The first commit adds code to detect sysctls which are not netns-safe, and can "leak" changes to other net namespaces. My manual audit found, and the above feature confirmed, that there are two nf_conntrack sysctls which are in fact not netns-safe. I considered sending the latter to netfilter-devel, but I think it's better to have both together on net-next: Adding only the former causes undesirable warnings in the kernel log.

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.
