When implementing a network namespace I need to be able\nto have multiple network devices with the same name. Currently this\nis a problem for /sys/class/net/*. \n\nWhat I want is a separate /sys/class/net directory in sysfs for each\nnetwork namespace, and I want to name each of them /sys/class/net.\n\nI looked and the VFS actually allows that. All that is needed is\nfor /sys/class/net to implement a follow link method to redirect\nlookups to the real directory you want. \n\nImplementing a follow link method that is sensitive to the current\nnetwork namespace turns out to be 3 lines of code so it looks like a\nclean approach. Modifying sysfs so it doesn\u0027t get in my was is a bit\ntrickier. \n\nI am calling the concept of multiple directories all at the same path\nin the filesystem shadow directories. With the directory entry really\nat that location the shadow master. \n\nThe following patch modifies sysfs so it can handle a directory\nstructure slightly different from the kobject tree so I can implement\nthe shadow directories for handling /sys/class/net/.\n\nSigned-off-by: Eric W.
