I'm still facing one userns related issue.

After creating it attach to it's console, you'll find bash as
pid 1.
And you'll find that /proc/1/ is not fully uid/gid-mapped:
---cut---
# ls -la /proc/1/
total 0
dr-xr-xr-x 8 root root 0 Jul 1 06:06 .
dr-xr-xr-x 74 nobody nogroup 0 Jul 1 06:06 ..
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jul 1 06:06 attr

Any ideas what's going on here?
No, it is very odd. It smells like a kernel issue to me. What
version are you running ?
I've also tried running the demo programs shown on the LWN.net
article
https://lwn.net/Articles/532593/
and they don't operate in the way described by the article - the demo
programs continue to ru as 'nfsnobody' even after the mappings are
setup.
I'm just using the Fedora 3.9.4-303 kernel, rebuilt with userns enabled
in KConfig. I'm wondering if there is still stuff missing in 3.9.x
that prevents this from working properly, or if the kernel behaviour
changed after those LWN articles were written.
