+
+This page shows how to configure process namespace sharing for a pod. When
+process namespace sharing is enabled, processes in a container are visible
+to all other containers in that pod.
+
+You can use this feature to configure cooperating containers, such as a log
+handler sidecar container, or to troubleshoot container images that don't
+include debugging utilities like a shell.

+
+A special **alpha** feature gate `PodShareProcessNamespace` must be set to true
+across the system: `--feature-gates=PodShareProcessNamespace=true`.
+
+{% endcapture %}
+
+{% capture steps %}
+
+## Configure a Pod
+
+Process Namespace Sharing is enabled using the `ShareProcessNamespace` field of
+`v1.PodSpec`. For example:
+
+{% include code.html language="yaml" file="share-process-namespace.yaml" ghlink="/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/share-process-namespace.yaml" %}
+
+1. Create the pod `nginx` on your cluster:
+
+        $ kubectl create -f https://k8s.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/share-process-namespace.yaml
+
+1. Attach to the `shell` container and run `ps`:
+
+        $ kubectl attach -it nginx -c shell
+        If you don't see a command prompt, try pressing enter.
+        / # ps ax
+        PID   USER     TIME  COMMAND
+            1 root      0:00 /pause
+            8 root      0:00 nginx: master process nginx -g daemon off;
+           14 101       0:00 nginx: worker process
+           15 root      0:00 sh
+           21 root      0:00 ps ax
+
+You can signal processes in other containers. For example, send `SIGHUP` to
+nginx to restart the worker process. This requires the `SYS_PTRACE` capability.
+
+        / # kill -HUP 8
+        / # ps ax
+        PID   USER     TIME  COMMAND
+            1 root      0:00 /pause
+            8 root      0:00 nginx: master process nginx -g daemon off;
+           15 root      0:00 sh
+           22 101       0:00 nginx: worker process
+           23 root      0:00 ps ax
+
+It's even possible to access another container image using the
+`/proc/$pid/root` link.
+
+        / # head /proc/8/root/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
+
+        user  nginx;
+        worker_processes  1;
+
+        error_log  /var/log/nginx/error.log warn;
+        pid        /var/run/nginx.pid;
+
+
+        events {
+            worker_connections  1024;
+

+
+## Understanding Process Namespace Sharing
+
+Pods share many resources so it makes sense they would also share a process
+namespace. Some container images may expect to be isolated from other
+containers, though, so it's important to understand these differences:
+
+1. **The container process no longer has PID 1.** Some container images refuse
+   to start without PID 1 (for example, containers using `systemd`) or run
+   commands like `kill -HUP 1` to signal the container process. In pods with a
+   shared process namespace, `kill -HUP 1` will signal the pod sandbox.
+   (`/pause` in the above example.)
+
+1. **Processes are visible to other containers in the pod.** This includes all
+   information visible in `/proc`, such as passwords that were passed as arguments
+   or environment variables. These are protected only by regular Unix permissions.
+
+1. **Container filesystems are visible to other containers in the pod through the
+   `/proc/$pid/root` link.** This makes debugging easier, but it also means
+   that filesystem secrets are protected only by filesystem permissions.
