lsns: List namespaces associated with {{pid}}.
$ lsns --task ${pid}
try on your machine

The lsns command in Linux is used to list the namespaces created in the system. A namespace is a feature in the Linux kernel that allows running processes to have their own isolated instance of various system resources.

The --task option is used with lsns to display information about a specific process and its associated namespaces. ${pid} is a placeholder for the Process ID (PID) of the target process.

So, the command lsns --task ${pid} will list the namespaces associated with the process identified by the specified PID. It helps to identify the namespaces in use by a specific process.
