-8. Implementation note: user namespaces
-
-User namespaces are intended to be hierarchical.  But they are currently
-only partially implemented.  Each of those has ramifications for CFS.
-
-First, since user namespaces are hierarchical, the /sys/kernel/uids
-presentation is inadequate.  Eventually we will likely want to use sysfs
-tagging to provide private views of /sys/kernel/uids within each user
-namespace.
-
-Second, the hierarchical nature is intended to support completely
-unprivileged use of user namespaces.  So if using user groups, then
-we want the users in a user namespace to be children of the user
-who created it.
-
-That is currently unimplemented.  So instead, every user in a new
-user namespace will receive 1024 shares just like any user in the
-initial user namespace.  Note that at the moment creation of a new
-user namespace requires each of CAP_SYS_ADMIN, CAP_SETUID, and
-CAP_SETGID.

 2.3 Basis for grouping tasks
 ----------------------------
