MNT (mount points and filesystems) namespaces in Linux

1 Úvod

The MNT namespace (mount points and filesystems) isolates the mount points a process, or a group of processes, can see, so programs in different MNT namespaces can have different views of the filesystem hierarchy. It is much like the isolation "chroot()" gives, except that an MNT namespace should be the safer and more flexible choice for the purpose.
