Hey,
After having synced with Andrei with the ARM time namespace support patchset we've decided to make vdso_join_timens() a function that cannot fail but not yet change its return type so the changes for ARM can proceed independently. We will simply have a follow-up patch right after these changes land during the v5.9 merge window that changes vdso_join_timens() from returning an int to void.
So far setns() with pidfds was missing time namespace support. This was partially due to it simply not being implemented but also because vdso_join_timens() could still fail which made switching to multiple namespaces atomically problematic. This series first fixes vdso_join_timens() to never fail, introduces timens_commit() and finally adds CLONE_NEWTIME support for setns().
Thanks! Christian
