TLDR
In this article, a UML kernel is run inside a container of a host, and a system call hook kernel module on the host is used to hook a system called received from the container.Abstract:
Examples of techniques for running kernel dependent applications in containers are disclosed. In one example implementation, a method includes initiating, by a processing system, a user mode Linux (UML) kernel in a container of a host. The method further includes initiating, by the processing system, an agent inside the UML, the agent configured to handle system call redirection from a host kernel of the host. The method further includes enabling, by the processing system, a system call hook kernel module on the host to hook a system call received from the container. The method further includes determining, by the processing system, whether the UML kernel is running inside the container. The method further includes, based at least in part on determining that the UML is running inside the container, passing, by the processing system, the system call to the UML kernel inside the container.read more

System and method for controlling inter-application association through contextual policy control
TL;DR: In this article, a method for controlling the interoperation of a plurality of software applications and resources includes intercepting communications from a first application to a second application or resource, directing the communication to a context management system, generating a candidate list of contexts for the communication, evaluating the candidate list according to at least one policy defined for these contexts, and performing the action as defined by the policies within the identified namespace.
