.SS UTS namespaces (CLONE_NEWUTS)
UTS namespaces provide isolation of two system identifiers:
the hostname and the NIS domain name.
These identifiers are set using
.BR sethostname (2)
and
.BR setdomainname (2),
and can be retrieved using
.BR uname (2),
.BR gethostname (2),
and
.BR getdomainname (2).

When a process creates a new UTS namespace using
.BR clone (2)
or
.BR unshare (2)
with the
.BR CLONE_NEWUTS
flag, the hostname and domain of the new UTS namespace are copied
from the corresponding values in the caller's UTS namespace.

Use of UTS namespaces requires a kernel that is configured with the
.B CONFIG_UTS_NS
option.
