Re: (pspace,pid) vs true pid virtualization

yes, acceptable.
once, again, believe me, this is very required feature for
troubleshouting and management (as Eric likes to take about
maintanance :) )

IMHO there are certain things which _are_ required
and others which are nice to have but not strictly
required, just think "ptrace across pid spaces"
these "nice to have" features often make one solution more usable than another.

This is to support using pidspaces for vservers, and creating
migrateable sub-pidspaces in each vserver.

this doesn't help to create migratable sub-pidspaces.
for example, will you share IPCs in your pid parent and child pspaces?
if yes, then it won't be migratable;
well, not the child pspace, but the parent, no?
if IPC objects are shared between them, then they can only be migrated together.

if no, then you need to create fully isolated spaces to the end and
again you end up with a question, why nested pspaces are required at
all?
because we are not trying to implement a VPS only
solution for mainline, we are trying to provide
building blocks for many different uses, including
the VPS approach ...
nice! do you think I'm against building blocks?
no :) I'm just trying to get out from you how this can be used in real life and how will it work.
