Week #3 status report

[Priyanka Sharma]

Hi all

Here I am writing about my work I did in last week and what I am doing in week 4.

Week 3:

1) Understand system calls in glendix
2) Understand rfork()
2) find the the system call number required for rfork()
3) add it to glendix
4) add implementation of rfork() in which using RFCNAMEG flag and calling unshare() system call in linux kernel,
  new namespace can be created
5) compile it

Currently, I working on verification the rfork() system call in glendix. Does it work properly for namespaces, as its expected ?  

Week4 :

Implementation mount and umount which will be different from global mount. They will use their own namespace and behave similar like in plan9.

Hi All Readers,
I am not involved with Plan 9 GSoC in any other way than just being a
watcher. However, I wish to make a suggestion here. Priyanka's is a
Glendix project, even though it is under Plan 9. Should the status
updates be CC'ed to the Glendix mailing list also? -->
gle...@googlegroups.com

I would like if these updates are archived in that list also. There is
no one there yet, who is not here, but this suggestion is purely for
archival sake.

Regards,
