[RFC PATCH 1/3] setgroups: new mode 'shadow' for /proc/PID/setgroups

[Giuseppe Scrivano]

add a new mode 'shadow' to the /proc/PID/setgroups file.

When the 'shadow' string is written to the file, the current process
groups are inherited from the process and stored into the user
namespace.  These groups will be silently added on each setgroups(2)
call.  A child user namespace won't be able to drop these groups
anymore.

It enables using setgroups(2) in user namespaces on systems where
negative ACLs are used.
