The mechanism to start a container is to 'echo "container_name" > /proc/container' which creates a new

forked tasks then belong to that container.
There is a separate pid space associated with each container.
Only processes/task belonging to the same container "see" each other.

Why does there need a separate pid space for each container?
You don't really need one to make sure that only processes in the same containers can see each other.
