NS_GET_OWNER_UID - discovering the owner of a user namespace
#include <linux/nsfs.h> /* Definition of NS_GET_OWNER_UID */ #include <sys/ioctl.h> int ioctl(int fd, NS_GET_OWNER_UID, uid_t *uid);
The NS_GET_OWNER_UID operation can be used to discover the owner user ID of a user namespace (i.e., the effective user ID of the process that created the user namespace). fd refers to a /proc/pid/ns/user file. The owner user ID is returned in the uid_t pointed to by the third argument.
On success, 0 is returned. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.
EINVAL fd does not refer to a user namespace.
