Fix UTS corruption during clone(CLONE_NEWUTS)
struct utsname is copied from master one without any exclusion. Here is sample output from one proggie doing sethostname("aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"); sethostname("bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb"); and another clone(,, CLONE_NEWUTS, ...) uname() hostname = 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabbbbb' hostname = 'bbbaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa' hostname = 'aaaaaaaabbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb' hostname = 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabbbb' hostname = 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabb' hostname = 'aaabbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb' hostname = 'bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbaaaaaaaaaaaaaa' Hostname is sometimes corrupted. Yes, even _the_ simplest namespace activity had bug in it. :-( Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@sw.ru> Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
